Learning Outcomes

At the end of this course, students should be able to:

[1]  Explain the engineering graphics fundamentals.

[2]  Construct technical drawing using manual sketching and computer aided design.

[3]  Communicate by using engineering drawings.

Synopsis

The course will provide students with an understanding of the importance of engineering graphics as a communication tool among engineers. Student will be exposed to the engineering graphics fundamentals of manual sketching, geometric dimension and tolerance, graphic projections, sectioning and engineering drawings.  Students will develop visualization skills by constructing technical drawings using manual sketches and computer aided design (CAD) software. The course consists of both lecture and practical session where students will be guided in presenting and interpreting engineering drawings correctly.
