AutoDesk AutoCAD - Engineering Graphics
Students develop an understanding of the principles behind drafting engineering drawings and its
application in practice. Students are introduced to the methodological and technical aspects of
engineering graphics. This module will provide opportunity to develop hands-on skills and experience
in generating drawings using AutoDesk AutoCAD. Students are presented with an assignment brief,
which provides instruction on the drawings, level of detail required, and a deadline for submission.
To earn this badge the student must:
• Apply basic engineering drawing concepts including multiview drawings, projections, section views,
dimensioning, viewports, layers, layouts, and scales.
• Apply critical thinking to develop drawings based on the assignment briefs.
• Produce engineering drawings of a professional standard using AutoCAD that communicate the
necessary information in an accurate manner.
• Complete a complex assignment practicing all developed skills and achieve 70% or higher.
• Achieve a final grade of 1st class honours in the module.
