    This course is an introduction to metal joining techniques using welding, brazing, and soldering with an emphasis on safe work practices. This course provides students with a basic understanding of electricity as applied to electric arc welders, metallurgy of welding, welding processes and safe use of oxy/fuel welding and heating. Students will study theory and techniques in a classroom environment. Demonstrations and applications will be performed in a laboratory setting. Lecture [2.00], Laboratory [2.00]. 37
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is an exploration of 2D and 3D techniques used by industrial designers to communicate ideas for new products and product designs. Course includes a brief history of industrial design. Exercises in ideation and conceptualization will be used to familiarize students with design development philosophy. Use of freehand drawing techniques and drafting skills will be explained to produce presentations of proposed product concepts. Model making techniques will be explored to develop 3D communication skills. Lecture [2.00], Laboratory [2.00]. Prerequisite:    Prerequisite[s]: DFT-107.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is a study of the intermediate to advanced functionality of Parametric Technology Corporation's Pro/Engineer 3D solid modeling software.
