(Associate in Applied Sciences Degree, Tech Prep)
Richland only
- Students pursuing this award program are required to meet Texas Success Initiative (TSI) standards and course prerequisites.
- Students must earn at least 25% of the credit hours required for graduation through instruction by the college awarding the degree.
Degree Plan Code: AAS.ENGINEER.CAD
Design skills are required of today's CAD professionals. Knowledge of FEA, material analysis, applied mechanics, design for manufacture and CAD/CAM provides a strong base of information needed in design development.
This program stresses the entire product development process, using the parametric approach and integrating the computer as a true instrument of design - not a drafting tool.
