Introduction to Computer Aided Drafting: Students will use a computer graphic workstation in the application of fundamental principles and capabilities of CAD, basic drafting conventions, and operations. An in-depth study of computer aided drafting commands, terminology, command utilization, and skill development will be provided.  

Engineering Graphics: This course includes exploration of lines and planes as they relate to orthographic projection to show the size and shape of objects. Instruction includes application of principles and graphic elements of sectioning to show interior detail; the techniques involved in creating oblique projections, axonometric projections, and perspective drawings; and the dimensioning techniques and symbol usage common to all drafting disciplines.  

Intermediate Computer Aided Drafting: Students will use CAD software to produce advanced two- and three-dimensional object drawings; advanced techniques of drafting, layering, and symbols associated with one or more design applications; calculations of perimeters, areas, and mass associated with the drawings.

Industrial Drafting Processes: This course explores weldment design, welding symbols, welding processes, and fabrication techniques, tool and die, and jig and fixture drawings. Design specifications, pattern drawings, casting, forming processes, and mechanical drawing principles in relation to the manufacturing industry, and screw-thread design and related fastening concepts as they relate to manufactured items and construction are also included.
