DESIGN ENGINEERING TECH COURSES
 

DET121
ENGINEERING DRAWING
3 Credit Hours
This is a beginning drafting course that includes use of instruments, geometric constructions, technical lettering, orthographic projection, auxiliary views, sectional views, dimensioning and conventional practice.

DET122
DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY
3 Credit Hours
This course is designed to enable the student to properly visualize any object, regardless of its complexity. The three basic geometric elements (points, lines and surfaces) and their relationships to each other are described in detail.
Prerequisites:
DET121

DET124
WORKING DRAWINGS
3 Credit Hours
Course covers threads, welding, fasteners, tolerancing, fits, and basic geometric dimensioning as they relate to detail and assembly drawings. Students are required to complete a set of working drawings that are technically correct and feasible for production. Emphasis is placed on the various components that constitute a well-executed drawing.
Prerequisites:
DET121
Corequisites: DET125

DET125
BASIC AUTOCAD
3 Credit Hours
This course begins with basics and gives students hands-on experience using personal computers to create engineering drawings with AutoCAD software. Topics include: basic components of a CAD system, overview of [Windows] operations, input methods, drawing setup and display, editing, dimensioning, text, layers, hatching, blocks and plotting.

DET126
CUSTOMIZING AUTOCAD
3 Credit Hours
Building on concepts learned in Basic AutoCAD, this course focuses on more advanced topics: isomode; attributes; creation of toolbars, pull-down and button menus; creation of custom line types and hatch patterns; and an introduction to the fundamentals of AutoLISP programming.
Prerequisites:
DET125

DET131
PRO/ENGINEER
3 Credit Hours
This three-dimensional drawing uses Parametric Technology Corporation Pro/ENGINEER software and covers the basic through advanced commands. The basics focus on practical applications of design to develop parametric solid model representations of parts and assemblies. Advanced design features include the use of skeletons, advanced sketching, geometry, patterns, surface options, dimensions, bill of materials, and features, and plotting.
Prerequisites:
DET121

DET223
KINEMATICS
3 Credit Hours
This course covers motion of mechanisms. Machine displacement, velocity and accelerations are studied in detail. Using graphical, analytical and numerical approaches, various machine elements are analyzed and designed. The course relates theory learned in the first year with practical machine design applications. PC software programs and spreadsheets are used to verify design solutions
Prerequisites:
PHY121

DET226
GEOMETRIC DIM & TOL
2 Credit Hours
Designed to introduce students to the type of dimensioning that is part of ANSIY14.5M1994 dimensioning standard. General tolerancing methods will be reviewed first, then the geometric characteristics symbols and terms will be discussed. Datums will be defined and modifiers will be identified. The geometric tolerances of form, runout, orientation, profile and location will be analyzed in detail. The GD&T system will then be applied to actual manufacturing drawings. Special attention will be given to the problems that are experienced in industry between design, manufacturing and inspection personnel.
Prerequisites:
DET124

DET230
ADVANCED AUTOCAD (INVENTOR)
3 Credit Hours
An introduction to solid modeling using Autodesk's Inventor and the tools and commands to complete fully paramedtric three-dimensional parts, assemblies, presentations, and two-dimensional drawings. The student must have an understanding of computer-aided and mechanical drafting.
Prerequisites:
DET125

DET231
TOOL DESIGN
3 Credit Hours
This course covers the design and drawing of production jigs, fixtures, and stamping dies. The emphasis in jig and fixtures is placed on coordination of machine tools and standard component parts, using symbol libraries and AutoCAD to draw the final layout. While in stamping dies, a step-by-step approach is emphasized in drawing the details and assembly of a die including material punches, die sets, strippers, gauges, pilots and presses.
Prerequisites:
DET124, DET125
