DMACC CAD TECH

DMACC CAD TECH Visit our website! https://www.dmacc.edu/programs/cad/ Students will learn how to create CAD models and drawings to meet international and U.S.

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Technology prepares students for a career in a variety of design and drafting disciplines. The CAD technology student will be exposed to and operate different CAD software packages and related equipment. customary design and drafting standards. Students can obtain a one-year diploma or a two-year Associate degree in CAD technology. Students enrolled in the one-year dipl

oma will be taught basic drafting and CAD practices with emphasis on entry-level drafting job skills. Students enrolled in the Associate degree program will complete the first year diploma requirements and in the second year apply advanced CAD software operations including three-dimensional parametric (solid) modeling, model/assembly analysis and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing. Associate degree students will also be taught a variety of specialized design and drafting standards that are used in several different industries. Engineering and manufacturing design and drafting, computer animation, technical publishing and independent CAD contracting are areas where Computer-Aided Design Technology program graduates may find employment.
