Engineering Technology (CADDET)
List of Courses Degree
Requirements
The Computer Aided Drafting and Design Engineering Technology
(CADDET) program prepares students to enter the ever-changing and
highly challenging field of engineering as engineering technologists
in the fields of manufacturing, civil, architecture, or construction.
Program Mission
The mission of the CADDET program is to prepare students to work
in the Engineering Technology disciplines related to the field
of drafting and design. The
students will gain exposure to solving open-ended, real world applied
engineering problems.
Program Objectives:
- To prepare graduates with a broad knowledge base of the field
of Drafting and Design Engineering Technology.
- To prepare graduates with the problem solving tools, including
software, necessary to enter and advance in the field of Drafting
and Design Engineering Technology.
- To prepare graduates with the hands-on knowledge and skills
necessary to enter and advance in the field of Drafting and Design
Engineering Technology.
- To prepare graduates in the area of basic design of mechanical
components and systems necessary to enter and advance in the
field of Drafting and Design Engineering Technology.
The requirements for the Associate of Science degree in CADDET
provide a broad base of analytical, technical, and Core Curriculum
courses. Computer Aided Drafting and Design hardware and software
are used to enhance traditional instruction methods in all courses.
Built into the curriculum is an emphasis on both the study and
application of engineering design technology. The documents and
drawings produced by the CADDET graduate would be based upon sketches,
specifications, and calculations made by scientists, engineers,
architects, and designers. Material specification is an essential
part of the CADDET program of study.
The CADDET program is supported by the latest technology in both
hardware and software. All of our labs run the latest versions
of Autodesk products covering the following fields of design/engineering:
Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Manufacturing. This
program is accredited by TAC of ABET.
The ABET accreditation is used to assure quality in educational
institutions and programs. Accreditation is a voluntary,
non-governmental process of peer review. It requires an educational
institution or program to meet certain, defined standards or criteria.
