This course is a beginning course in the operational practices of computer aided drawing construction. Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) is the universal drawing tool in the production of Engineering, Architectural, Manufacturing, Mapping, Civil Engineering and Construction drawings. Students will learn basic draw and edit commands and will create simple engineering drawings.
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.
The Industrial Technology Division is a committed leader in innovative workforce development by meeting the dynamic needs of business and industry through the development of student-centered education, technical excellence, and citizenship.
