Engineering CAD Technology — Associate in Applied Science Degree (64 credits)
Digital Fabrication Technology — Certificate (16 credits)
In the Engineering CAD Technology Associate in Applied Science degree program you will use Computer Aided Drafting and Design (CAD) systems to create engineering drawings. Emphasis is placed on mechanical drafting standards, components and design for manufacturing. Graduates of the program find employment as mechanical drafters, engineering assistants, technicians, and technical sales people.
The Digital Fabrication Technology certificate is designed for individuals interested in learning more about automation and manufacturing technologies and systems. If you are enrolled in ECAD, Engineering, Math and Science programs/disciplines you may also benefit from this technical set of courses designed to prepare graduates for entry level employment or continuing education in technical/engineering fields. Additionally, this certificate serves as the entrance into the ECAD program. Graduates may gain employment in firms’ R&D, model shops or prototype departments.
