Specified Elective
Credits 5 Lecture Hours 33 Lab Hours 44
This course studies the principles of mechanical drawings: geometric construction, orthographic projection, sectional views, auxiliary views, isometric and oblique drawings, dimensions, threads, fasteners, and lettering using AutoCad software. This software is used by engineers to communicate proposed designs and new ideas. (Formerly ENGR 160)
