Overall Educational Objective To learn the principles of drawing, sectioning and projection together with assembly modeling and drawing.
Course Description This course introduces the principles of technical drawing using AutoCAD. Topics covered include: Introduction to computer aided technical drawing and AutoCAD, AutoCAD basics and basic drawing and editing skills, understanding layers and object’s properties within AutoCAD, projection methods and views, dimensioning, fits and allowances and surface textures, sections, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, standard parts and assembly drawings.

Course Learning Outcomes and Competences

Upon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:
1) draw technical views of a given part;
2) construct 3D body whose technical views are given;
3) create annotative objects (dimensions, tolerances, surface textures etc.);
4) make disciplinary drawings;
5) create technical drawing of an object and present it.
