CADD Program Learning Outcomes
Program Learning Outcomes
A graduate of the CADD Certificate should be able to:
- Detail various mechanical types of parts by following the ASME Y14 standard as it relates to descriptive geometry, theory of projection, auxiliary views, and sectioning.
- Detail various mechanical types of parts by following the ASME Y14 Design/Drafting standard as it relates to dimensioning, tolerancing, and GD&T.
- Design products using parametric solid modeling software (Solid Edge) to create electronic files as well as printed/plotted sets of working drawings that conform to the ASME Y14 Design/Drafting standard.
- Detail complete sets of working drawings by following the ASME Y14 Design/Drafting standard for the development of detail/assembly drawings specific to industry needs: machining, forging, casting, welding, pneumatics and hydraulics, piping, sheet-metal developments.
- Demonstrate a working knowledge of electricity and electronics, and develop a complete set of working drawings as they relate to the electronics industry.
- Resource and use both electronic and printed manufacturing materials.
SUNY General Education Requirement
Students who intend to receive AA, AS, or baccalaureate degrees must satisfy SUNY and campus General Education (GE) requirements to graduate. Students should be aware that GE requirements may vary by academic program. Consult with your academic advisor for program-specific information; for general information: General Education
AAS and AOS degree students may not be required to fulfill General Education (GE) requirements; however, any student who may wish to transfer should complete as many GE courses as possible. Consult with your academic advisor.
