Computer Aided Design

The Computer-Aided Design (CAD) program prepares students for careers in mechanical design by providing hands-on training with industry-standard CAD technology.

Students learn essential skills, including:

• Applied technical mathematics
• Engineering drawing
• Geometric dimensioning and tolerance
• Two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and solid modeling

The program emphasizes the integration of design, engineering, and manufacturing, preparing students to work in high-tech industries where CAD plays a central role in creating complex products and assemblies.

Graduates are equipped for entry-level roles in industrial drafting, CAD, and mechanical design, with a focus on real-world applications like product layouts, tool design, and advanced CAD techniques. Laboratory work ensures practical, hands-on experience.

What Do CAD Professionals Do?

CAD professionals, also known as drafters, use specialized software to transform engineers' and architects' designs into detailed technical drawings. These plans are essential for creating everything from everyday products to large-scale construction projects.

Where Do They Work?

CAD professionals typically work indoors in office or lab settings. Their roles are computer-focused, and most positions are full-time.

This program is the first step toward an exciting, technology-driven career!
