Course Code:
This course is designed for students interested in engineering, interior design, industrial design, architecture, carpentry, steel fabrication, and many other professions. The students will explore the elements and techniques used for sketching, designing, modeling and creating mechanical and basic architectural drawings. This course covers the basics of sketching then quickly moves on to 2-D Computer Assisted Drafting and Design (CADD) software. Students will also have access to our 3-D printers, laser cutters and cricuts to bring their designs to life. Students will be given the opportunity to create artistic CADD designs which may then be produced as vinyl decals, T-Shirt heat transfers or machined on our CNC equipment. As a final product, students will create a digital Portfolio highlighting their work that could be useful for future careers and/or Post Secondary applications.
No previous experience necessary. Students may take Drafting each year if they wish.
