    Description
    This introductory course takes up 2D and 3D computer-aided design drafting (CADD), and uses parametric modeling and rapid prototyping via parametric modeling software (e.g., the Autodesk Inventor series and SolidWorks) to produce solutions for mechanical applications. The course emphasizes CADD-generated 3D graphics using wire frames, surface modeling, and parametric solids, and is intended for students interested in engineering, drafting, design, and computer graphics (C.G.).
