Cobb Middle Applied Science & Technology Magnet Program

The Applied Science and Technology Magnet Program seeks to inspire creativity, stimulate curiosity and empower students to develop a comprehensive understanding of their world through the pursuit of scientific knowledge and investigative skills. Cobb’s magnet curriculum is structured to provide a solid foundation for scientific concepts and increasingly rigorous instruction. Through an exclusive magnet research elective class that uses an inquiry-based approach to curriculum, students will experience lessons in forensics, dissection, and paleontology. These lessons facilitate knowledge constructions of living things and allow students to explore human anatomy, evaluate current global ecological concerns, and uncover the mysteries of genetics, viruses, and microscopy. Magnet students are offered ten high school credits which can accelerate their personal education path.
