ENGR& 114 Engineering Graphics (5 credits)
Distribution Area Fulfilled General Transfer Elective
Formerly ENGR 110 - CCN
Course Description
An introduction to Computer Aided Design (CAD) using software. Students will use the software to create virtual models, show the models in various projections and views, manage the associated computer files, and produce engineering drawings and assemblies. The course includes the engineering graphics topics of three-dimensional visualization, sketching, displaying solid objects in two-dimensional views, dimensioning, and reading engineering drawings.
Course Content
Fundamentals of using CAD for part modeling following proper conventions and techniques
Creating engineering drawings from CAD models
Techniques for creating assembly models from parts models in CAD
Creating exploded and assembly drawings from assembly models in CAD
Creating orthographic, isometric, auxiliary, section, and oblique projection drawings from part and assembly models using solid modeling CAD systems
Applying dimensioning tolerancing techniques to CAD models, drawings and assemblies
Fundamentals of engineering design and its expression as a design in CAD
Reading and interpreting engineering drawings
Student Outcomes
- Construct three-dimensional parts and assemblies using CAD software.
- Create drawings of parts and assemblies in CAD using accepted visual, dimensioning and tolerance techniques.
- Produce original three-dimensional computer models of components and their assemblies.
- Apply CAD drawing and visualization to engineering design.
- Create CAD models using feature-based parametric modeling.
- Visualize and sketch three-dimensional objects in two dimensions using various projections and views.
Degree Outcomes
Critical, Creative and Reflective Thinking
Graduates will evaluate, analyze, synthesize, and generate ideas; construct informed, meaningful, and justifiable conclusions; and process feelings, beliefs, biases, strengths, and weaknesses as they relate to their thinking, decisions, and creations.
