The Drafting and CAD Technology program provides 培训 in architectural drafting, 建筑信息建模, and 3D solids modeling that prepares students for careers in a variety of industries that employ computer-aided drafters. The department also serves the needs of students who are pursuing transfer to four-year universities in Civil Engineering, 机械工程, 在这些专业开设核心课程.
The Drafting and CAD (Computer Aided Drafting/Design) Technology program is designed to prepare students to fulfill technical documentation requirements of today�s technically demanding disciplines from architecture to 工程. 学生将应用各种三角概念, 物理科学, and computer science in class to help prepare for real-world applications. The two major focus areas: Architecture and Construction along with Manufacturing and Engineering help to prepare students for careers such as interior design, 建筑施工, 工程, 制造或架构. 成功完成本课程后, the student will be able to: describe the role of technical graphics in the 工程 design process; produce dimensioned technical drawings using both manual sketching techniques and computer-aided drafting and design software; read and interpret the technical information provided by construction drawings, 阴谋计划, 地板上的计划, 系统蓝图, 和海拔.
起草技术 as an instructional program has the overarching goals that include:
- Consolidate and align lecture and laboratory spaces to every extent possible to synergize all instructional delivery with ENGR and CSCI programs.
- Replace all equipment and instrumentation to current technology standards of practice for transfer and technology based completion strands.
- Attend professional development events, education opportunities, 实习和贸易展览.
策略一-绘图技术设施
Augment and configure additional laboratory space necessary to resolve impacted program and lack of resource space in which to teach sections that would make with added lab space. The addition of one lab space environment would also centralize the locations of programs such as ENGR and CSCI to maximize effectiveness and would synergize all instructional delivery.
DFT program growth is limited by facility circumstances and require one additional dedicated laboratory area be added to meet growth. 另外, centralize location of Engineering program lecture and laboratory spaces to every extent possible to synergize all instructional delivery with ENGR and CSCI programs. 目前, ENGR has NO dedicated facility and shares space with Physical Sciences, 数学与制图技术. 还需要一个设备齐全的实验室.
策略2 -更新教学设备和计算资源
Replace all equipment and instrumentation to current technology standards of practice of a contemporary computer science, 起草技术, 可持续发展技术, 工程 for transfer and 工程 technology based completion strands.
Contemporary computer science and 工程 programs demand the very most in equipment and computing performance including desktops, 网络, interconnects and distribution and storage in server-based environments. Current equipment and computing resources DO NOT meet minimum requirements for effective programming. Replace all equipment and instrumentation to current technology standards of practice of a contemporary computer science, 起草技术, 可持续发展技术, 工程 for transfer and 工程 technology based completion strands.
策略三:专业发展
教职员工的专业发展，包括活动, 研讨会, 培训, 实习和贸易展览.
STEM programs mandate a continued pursuit of professional development that extends beyond local resources. Professional development keeps faculty and staff at the leading edge of development of relevant instructional programming, 课程, 证书和学位.
设施是DFT项目的限制因素之一. The schedule of DFT classes is primary to the Main campus and the Chico Center campus however the use of facilities by the CSCI and ENGR programs makes scheduling a fundamentally difficult issue term over term. 除了, the limitation of scheduling to avoid current Mathematics Department and the collective Physical Sciences Department makes the limitation of computer-based laboratory space one of the most critical issue to solve for the Department of Computer Science, 2019- 2020年需要解决的制图和工程问题.
随着编程技术的不断发展，以DFT为基础, TOPS codes matched to offerings allowing the potential funding sources including: Perkins funding for CTE program improvement and development as well as String Workforce. 除了, DFT will self-support through contract 3D printing services average monthly revenue and drafting services.
