-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to algebraic functions. The solution of linear and quadratic equations is included. Emphasis is graphical and students use various plotting packages to emphasize concepts. Prerequisite: BM01, high school equivalent or standardized placement test
-
0.00 Credits
A second-semester course which prepares students for the many career opportunities available to them as students and graduates. Topics covered include r'esum'e preparation, networkingand interviewing skills, industry news, internships and various other job search techniques.
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits The goal of this course is to provide an introduction to engineering graphics and computer-aided design. This is accomplished by examining the role of the computer in the present design process. Topics include computer graphics, computer aided-design and drafting (CAD) and computer-aided engineering, orthographic projection dimensioning, auxiliary and section views and geometric construction.
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits The goal of this course is to introduce basic concepts of traditional mechanical drafting while using the CAD terminal as the primary formal drafting tool. Emphasis will be placed on the interpretation, sketching and the formal creation of two-dimensional engineering drawings, meeting standards as used in the manufacturing and repair of individual parts, assemblies and subassemblies. Topics include the basics of descriptive geometry and orthographic projections, sketching, pictorials, auxiliary views, section views, dimensioning, assembly drawings and the standards used in creating and the filling out of title boxes, revision boxes, and the bill of materials. In addition, the creation, modification and plotting of CAD entities will also be covered. Prerequisite: CSC111
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course covers the use of Solid Edge and AutoCAD software in the production of 2D and 3D computer graphics as it relates to engineering and architectural applications. Students will be introduced to working in 3D space within Solid Edge and will utilize its 3D drawing tools such as wire-frame and solid modeling as well as the production of perspective and multi-view drawings. Students will create detail and assembly drawings (2D in AutoCAD) using current industrial practices, create 3D solid models in Solid Edge, and create sheet metal drawings, air foil layouts (lofting) and perform tolerance calculations. Prerequisite: CDE117 or CDE120
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course covers the more advanced functions of the AutoCAD software program. Topics include the creation and usage of blocks and their attributes, advanced use of layers and cross-referenced drawings. The use of AutoCAD's internal programming language Autolisp is also covered. Students will also learn how to extract object information from a drawing and database for use in material schedule assignment. Portfolio creation and management of student AutoCAD work will also be discussed. Prerequisite: CDE240
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits Computer-aided three-dimensional application (CATIA) fundamentals is a course that is organized around real world problems that would be solved using descriptive geometry exercises as a foundation and the CAD application as a helpful tool. Vectors, transformations, geometric modeling concepts, techniques and methodologies are discussed. Demonstrating the use of the computer- aided design (CAD) tool to the solution of concepts in other courses in the mechatronics program is a primary focus of the course. This will enable students to revisit concepts in other solid mechanics courses within the program (e.g. statics and strength of materials). One example will be a free body wireframe model that students will solve by sketching and representing in a CAD drawing. The dynamic link between the two files (.catpart and .catdrawing) will be used to illustrate changes in loading conditions. Included in this course are the concepts of three-dimensional wireframe modeling and the transition to surfce and solid modeling as well. The application of CAD to industrial problems is also a topic of discussion, such as how design and manufacturing can be improved through the linking of CAD to computer-aided manufacturing applications. The standards used for file conversions and incompatibility issues will also be discussed. Prerequisite: CDE240
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course will explore the foundation concepts of the Solid Edge v18 application. The laboratory projects will focus on parametric parts modeling, their representation using drawing views to graphically communicate their manufacture, assembling and constraining several parts together and surface models and their underlying wire frame foundations. Prerequisite: CDE240
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits This course focuses on more advanced assemblies. Other workbenches not covered in CDE385 are used, such as Digital Mock-up (DMU), Prismatic Machining and Kinematics. Students are required to make a final presentation on an approved project. Prerequisite: CDE385
-
3.00 Credits
- 3 credits The course will cover measurement, quality assurance and tolerancing in addition to material removal processes. It will include chip-type machining, cutting tools for machining, turning, boring and its derivatives. Milling and drilling will also be covered extensively, as well as numerical control and machining centers and the principles of the languages used in their operations. During the second half of the semester, the CATIA prismatic machining module will be used to virtually design and machine a series of parts using the processes already learned. Students will create an network computer code and input it into the program in order to prove out the part. Upon completion of the course, the student will feel a sense of accomplishment in not only designing the part, but also in its manufacture. Prerequisites: EGR235; CDE385
