This course is designed to fit the needs of juniors and seniors who plan to follow an engineering curriculum in college and who have had no drafting in their high school program. Traditional techniques will be taught and the CAD system will be introduced. Assignments will be equally divided between these two relevant areas in order to give students a complete picture of the fundamental techniques/methodologies available to the modern-day draftsperson/engineer. Quality of work is stressed with assignments in drafting constructions, machine motion study, and structural drafting. Technical background information relating to each unit of work will be presented to enhance the drawing experiences. Basic vocational and career opportunities will be discussed.
