Computer Aided Drafting 3-D is a basic through advanced Autodesk Inventor and mechanical drafting course in which students learn the Autodesk Inventor tools and computer aided design and drafting practices used to develop three-dimensional (3-D) solid models and two-dimensional (2-D) drawings.

ENTK 2550—Civil Drafting Technology

Civil Drafting Technology is a basic through advanced AutoCAD and civil drafting course in which students learn the AutoCAD commands and computer aided design and drafting (CADD) principles and practices used in the civil drafting field. Civil Drafting Technology provides students with an introduction to mapping, surveying, and GIS, and in-depth coverage of legal descriptions, plot plans, contour lines, profiles, highway layout, and earthwork drawings.

ENTK 2615—MicroStation Fundamentals

For the new MicroStation user, this course builds solid foundation in the concepts, tools and features found in the MicroStation drawing environment. Starting with setting up a drawing and concluding with plotting, the participant is walked through a typical workflow using the tools and features of the latest version of MicroStation.

ENTK 2625—Advanced MicroStation

For the experienced MicroStation user, this course focuses on the features of MicroStation designed to improve user productivity. Providing lecture, demonstration and hands-on exercises, Advanced MicroStation begins with a thorough examination of AccuDraw and ends with an introduction to importing and exporting CADD data from /to other CADD programs.

ENTK 2670—Practical Surveying

This course is designed for students in the AAS Drafting program who do not wish to continue their education beyond the AAS degree level. Concurrent enrollment (or prior successful completion) in MATH 1510, “Technical Math” is required. This is a two credit course, consisting of 1-one hour lecture and 1-three hour lab per week. The three hour lab period will allow us to do intensive field work and learn the principles of surveying in a concentrated format.

ENTK 2685—Project Drafting (Capstone)

Project Drafting is an advanced project based, capstone course in which students use AutoCAD to prepare a complete set (when appropriate) of working mechanical or architectural drawings, depending on student interest. Project Drafting simulates working in the drafting industry by allowing students the opportunity to complete a real-world drafting project that includes a wide range of experience in the selected drafting field. Students rely on the AutoCAD commands, computer aided design and drafting applications, drafting theory, and resources explored throughout the Drafting Technology program to show, through quantity and quality of drawings, that they have achieved skill development and knowledge in the selected drafting field.
