ENGT 121 Graphic Problem Solving

4 credits
This class focuses on graphic problem solving. Principles and techniques of descriptive geometry and section views are the main subject taught. Students will also learn how to create development patterns. Emphasis is placed on ASME standards.

Prerequisites: ENGT 100 ENGT 101 ENGT 102 , and ENGT 103  

Corequisites: ENGT 131  and ENGT 132
