| Brief description of the Unit |
This unit introduces students to the principles of engineering design and drafting. It utilises commonly used engineering software such as the AutoDESK software AutoCAD. The unit introduces the fundamentals of communicating a design through a technical drawing as well as introducing how to implement this within the computer software. Through practise and example, students will develop their skills to a level capable of modelling complicated objects or structures in two (2D) and three dimensions (3D) as well as developing the skills needs to determine key information from their models. By the end of the unit, students should be able to communicate intricate ideas with succinct diagrams to a deadline. |
