CADD I is the study of graphical communication. The drafting fundamentals studied in this course will include 3D Solid Modeling, blueprint reading, measurement, geometric construction, orthographic projection, section views, dimensioning, threads and fasteners. All work is performed using current CAD software (SolidWorks) on personal computers. This class runs Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:30pm-8:20pm.

CADN112N- CAD II-Spring 2027

CADD II will continue the study of graphical communication exploring advanced 3D Solid Modeling, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, manufacturing methods, spring, and cam design. Students will learn all of the components necessary to design in a 3D environment including solids, surfaces, parts and assemblies, applying materials, and creating animated assemblies. Spring classes run from Jan 20th through May 9th.This class meets Tuesday/Thursday 6pm-9:20pm

CADN131-Technical Drawing-Spring 2027

This course covers the basics of drafting fundamentals including blueprint reading, measurement, geometric construction, orthographic projection, section views, auxiliary views, dimensioning and tolerancing, threads and fasteners.
