3.00 Credits
The Advanced CAD Project course serves as a capstone learning experience for students in the Computer Aided Drafting and Design program. The course provides students with a vehicle to showcase acquired drafting and design skills in any of a number of engineering areas including (but not limited to) the architectural, mechanical, civil, and electrical disciplines. The purpose of the course is to expose final semester students to a real-world project development experience by guiding them through all of the stages of a professional level engineering project from conception to final,formal presentation. Lecture ( 15.00) Laboratory ( 60.00)

4.00 Credits
It is assumed that a graduating technology student will have mastered all the skills within the traditional disciplines. The purpose of the Project Design I course is to pull them all together and apply them towards the design and implementation of a "product", and to afford the students an opportunity to experience team-based design under conditions that closely resemble those that will be encountered in industry. Students must develop and sharpen skills in team organization, time management, self-discipline, and technical writing, in order to be successful in this course. An important goal of this course is to expose students to a "hands-on" experience in which they have to specify, design, and produce a full-system beginning from relatively ill-posed needs as stated by a "customer." This objective has to be accomplished while working as a team, and under time pressure. Lecture ( 30. 00) Laboratory ( 60.00) Prerequisites: CAD-101 and CIM-101

3.00 Credits
The course will introduce students to using the computer as a complete electronic publishing layout system and graphic design tool. All of the major stages in the page layout, both traditional and the electronic process will be introduced. These stages include manuscript typing, editing, typespacing, typesetting, layout skills, creating and digitizing illustrations, comprehensive dummies and final output capabilities. Students will also explore hardware and software terminology that is used in the page layout process. Software applications that will be explored are word processing programs, page layout programs, painting/drawing programs and scanning software programs. Lecture ( 45.00)
-
3.00 Credits
This course builds on the foundation learned in Electronic Layout & Design. It further develops the student's basic computerized layout and design skills with particular emphasis on the fundamentals of prepress. Topics covered will include color control, color separations, special effects for type, automatic tracing of scanned images, scaling and cropping photographs and graphics, instant metamorphosis of one image into another, postscript output, and prepress process. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CGR-101
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide an overview to the entire printing process. In today's industry it is essential for the commercial artist to understand the principles of printing terminology in order to complete pre-press material and effectively communicate with the printer. The course will cover not only the latest developments in technology, but the traditional foundation methods as well. This course will explore a variety of printing processes and their applications. Emphasis will be placed on various printing processes, color separations, printing estimation, and production control. This course is not intended to provide students with hands-on operation of a printing press, but rather the understanding of the principles and practices of the printing industry. Lecture ( 45.00)
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the fundamentals and practical applications of layout and design for a variety of media. Course content will include principles of conventional and modern layout, tools, typography and effective use of color depending on the final output. Students will gain experience in executing variations of rough layouts for different purposes, selecting and positioning correct illustrative material, interpreting target audiences, creative concept formulation, working with art, as well as production methodology. The vocabulary advertising language associated with graphic design/advertising and production processes will be covered. Lecture ( 45.00)
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the fundamentals and practical applications of p odcasting. Students will explore all types of podcasting and blogging methods so they can self-publish their content and create podcasts for a wide audience. Course content will include both audio and video tool options. Students will upload to a webserver so the podcasts may be accessed from the World Wide Web. The vocabulary language associated with the podcasting process will be covered. Lecture ( 45.00)
-
3.00 Credits
This course will provide studio experience in computer graphics art and design. This combined studio/lecture course is an introduction to the creative possibilities of graphics computing and to the historical, conceptual, technical, and contemporary background of computers and computer graphics. Emphasis is placed on the visual problem solving process through the use of applications and equipment. Students will be able to utilize a variety of software and hardware which includes bit-mapped paint and object-oriented drawing software programs. Lecture ( 45.00)
-
3.00 Credits
This course builds on the foundation in Computer Graphic Design I. It further develops the student's basic computer graphic design and skills with particular emphasis on computer imagery created by various paint programs. Students will study advanced paint systems which allow the artist to create electronic images directly on the computer screen by controlling the color and intensities of each pixel. Creative and conceptual development are emphasized throughout the course. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: CGR-111
