Engineering Drafting and Design Associate of Science

The Associate of Science Degree in Engineering Drafting and Design prepares students to work in the field of Engineering as a CADD drafter. Students will be knowledgeable in Solidworks and AutoCAD software and understand the basics of producing construction documents using both Solidworks and AutoCAD. Students will have a conceptual knowledge of 3-Dmodeling and rendering. Students will also be able to perform print reading tasks as they relate to mechanical, industrial, and engineering drawings.  To acquire the Associate of Science Degree in Engineering Drafting and Design, it is necessary to complete the graduation requirements of the College, along with the following:18 units including ENGD 101, ENGD 103, ARCH 108, ENGD 110, ENGD 130 (95), ENGD 210. 

Enrollment Completer Projections is 25 students annually.

This major curriculum leads to the Associate of Science Degree in Engineering Drafting and Design for advanced Tech Prep applications, employment in design,engineering and manufacturing related industries, public works, utilities and CADD/Drafting related industries. Upon completion of specific General Education courses, this program also fulfills many of the requirements and foundation courses for transfer to other Baccalaureate technical majors within Engineering and Industrial Technology but is not intended to fulfill transfer requirements for the Baccalaureate degree. (See transfer requirements for individual colleges and universities). Student Learning Outcomes (SLO) Given various visual communication technologies such as traditional drafting and CADD, with industry standards such as ANSI / ASME and ISO, successful students will be able to effectively communicate, understand and interpret design concepts and criteria for industries that design, engineer and manufacture products. Upon completion of the program, successful students are prepared for industry employment and advancement within a variety of related professions. Further,students are prepared to transfer to advanced fields of study in related occupations.
