Course Description

Fundamental knowledge and skills in producing two dimensional

graphics communications are taught for manual technical
drawings, and using AutoCAD. The required standards and
conventions will be covered as well as types of graphical
information dissemination. Solid modeling, assembly and
generation of technical drawings from three dimensional models
are taught using Pro/Engineer software. Students will have to
undertake a group based project that consists of proposal
sketching, technical drawings, solid modeling, written report and
oral presentation of work.
