EGR 166 - Engineering Graphics & Conceptual Design


Prerequisites:
MAT129 with a passing grade.

 

Corequisites:
MAT129 if not previously taken.

 


STANDARD CREDIT TYPE
4 credit(s)

Explores the integration of conceptual design, engineering graphics and computer-aided design. This course includes orthographic projection applied to three-dimensional geometry and engineering drawing, as well as instrument and free-hand application to an open-ended project that includes a formal engineering report.
