Prerequisite: DRFT 2114, AutoCAD I This course explores the three-dimensional construction and viewing capabilities of AutoCAD. Topics covered include: user coordinate systems, visual styles,
composite solid modeling and editing, rendering, animation, and creating 2-D drawings from 3-D models.
Students will create photo-realistic renderings and animations from the composite solids they create.
Students will utilize a rapid prototyper (3D printer) to produce 3D plastic parts of their own design.
