This course presents an intensive study of CADD applications as they relate to architecture. Utilizing the latest release of AutoCAD software and previously learned technical and architectural drafting conventions, students will produce two and three dimensional CAD generated architectural working and presentation drawings and 3D models. The course emphasizes high technology skills which are necessary to function as a designer, CADD operator or to apply CADD to specific disciplines of engineering, architecture, design and illustration. Students will be introduced to advanced CAD skills, computerized rendering, advanced three dimension applications, 3D Studio and efficient CAD drawing management. Course may be taken once for credit towards the major and repeated three times for credit to enhance student skills and proficiency levels, or repeated due to content change from software revisions, third party software and upgrades. Students who have verifiable work experience in AutoCAD and architectural drawing may request a waiver of the prerequisite.
