Autocad Course

In this autocad course students will learn how to create and edit professional looking 2d drawings, fundamental concepts and workflow for creating 3d models, presenting design using visualization tools. Students will apply what they have learned from the theory presentations in their hands-on exercises using supplied drawing files. 

These exercises include step-by-step instructions along with clearly illustrated screen captures. The drawing project in this course will provide students an excellent opportunity to utilize the learnt knowledge and skills in completing a comprehensive and challenging mini project.

Upon completion of this AutoCAD course, students will be able to create a basic and advanced 2D drawings using drawing and editing tools, design, edit and present 3D models, organize drawing objects on layers, add text and basic dimensions, and prepare drawings to plot.
