Master Syllabus DF1053, Pictorial Drawings

Credits 3 Lab Hours 5 Lecture Hours 1 Clinical Hours 0
Course Description

This course instructs students how to create Pictorial Drawings to enhance engineering drawings or to illustrate the actual appearance of an object. While Multi-view drawings accurately represent complex forms, it is often necessary to prepare accurate and scientifically correct drawings that can be understood by persons without technical drafting training. Co-requisite DF1143 Technical Drafting II

For each unit of credit, a minimum of three hours per week with one of the hours for class and two hours for studying/preparation outside of class is expected.

Program and/or Department Mission Statement
