Educational Goals

Knowledge of relevant standards relating to mechanical drawing.
Have the ability to think in three dimensions
Illustrate their ideas using sketches
Create view and cross sectional views of simple assemblies
Create engineering drawings of simple and complex mechanical designs.
A key learning outcome of the course is for the student to have the required skill that will allow him to document his thoughts in engineering drawings so that he can easily communicate with other engineers. The student should have the required knowledge to read engineering drawings and make the required corrections and adjustments to them.
