Computer-aided Engineering Drawing is advanced engineering drawing utilizing computer-aided drafting (CAD) for the study of threads, gears, and standard fasteners; geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T); schematic, production,
and assembly drawings; and introduction to solids modeling. Students should possess a basic knowledge of engineering graphics with an understanding of view orientation, projection systems, and CAD.
