COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN AND DRAFTING TECHNOLOGY
Extended Degree Program - Associate in Applied Science
Computer Aided Engineering Option (CAD.CAE.AAS)
The Computer Aided Design and Drafting Technology Program leads to an Associate in Applied Science Degree and is designated as an Extended Degree Program in that the student must complete a minimum of 73 or more credit hours.
Computer Aided Engineering Technology is an option in the CAD Associate in Applied Science Degree program. This program option provides students with instruction in engineering-related design with emphasis on concepts and applications of Computer Aided Engineering Technology.
The program option covers subjects such as principles of Kinematics and its applications in engineering-related design, concepts and techniques of finite element modeling for stress analysis and nondestructive testing, techniques and applications of solid modeling for design and manufacturing and computer aided techniques for numerical control tool path generation for manufacturing.
Upon completion of this associate degree program or certificate, graduates will be prepared for employment in engineering, manufacturing and design analysis industries. Also, upon completion of the associate degree program, students may transfer to a four-year institution. Please see an OCC counselor for details.
