ENGR& 114 Engineering Graphics

5 credits

This course introduces methods of communicating technical information in engineering design. Students will use 3D parametric Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software to create solid models and fabrication drawings. The roles of engineers, designers, and drafters, and how they relate in an engineering environment, will be covered.

Prerequisites: ENGR 100
