ME 210 & 302 Course Objectives:

To instruct students on modern graphics and modeling fundamentals for engineering design. Students will become proficient in freehand sketching, geometric modeling, and its application to computer-aided drafting and design (CADD). They will learn graphic geometry, projection theory, visualization methods, pictorial sketching, geometric (solid) modeling techniques, drafting practices, and data reporting. They will also become familiar with the application of geometric modeling to engineering design analysis, manufacturing, and construction. The course will include an introduction to the modern engineering design graphics process through a team project resulting in the creation of 3D rapid prototype models.
