Engineer Design Graph (DFTG)

This course is an introduction to the principles of drafting to include terminology and fundamentals, including size and shape descriptions, projection methods, geometric construction, sections, and auxiliary views.

This course in an introduction to computer-aided drafting with an emphasis on setup, creating and modifying geometry; storing and retrieving predefined shapes; placing, rotating, and scaling objects, adding text and dimensions, using layers, coordinate systems, and plot/print to scale.

This course focuses on architectural drafting procedures, practices, terms, and symbols, including preparation of detailed working drawings for residential structures with emphasis on light frame construction methods.

This course is a study of mechanical drawings using dimensioning and tolerances, sectioning techniques, orthographic projection, and pictorial drawings.

This course offers training with a parametric-based design software for 3D design and drafting.

This course focuses on developing graphical solutions to problems involving points, lines, and planes in space.

This is a drafting course in which students participate in a comprehensive project from conception to conclusion. Department chair approval required.

This is a work-based learning experience that enables the student to apply specialized occupational theory, skills and concepts. A learning plan is developed by the college and the employer. An Internship may be either paid or unpaid. The college does not contract with companies to provide employment. Finding a suitable drafting position is the responsibility of the student. The student must acquire a minimum of 288 hours of supervised, work-based drafting or engineering-related experience during the semester to successfully complete the course. The job description for the work site must relate to the general curriculum of the Engineering Design Graphics department. Department chair approval required.
