Drafting Technology Courses
Drafting Technology Courses
Drafting Technology courses provide students with the skills to create technical drawings and designs using both traditional methods and computer-aided design (CAD) software. These classes prepare students for careers in fields like engineering, architecture, and construction, offering hands-on experience in design principles, problem-solving, and project planning.

This course introduces students to design, and computer aided drafting (CAD). This course is appropriate for all students in grades 9-12. Students will learn 3D printing, mechanical drafting, and design skills. In this class, you use 3D modeling software to design, prototype, and collaborate with classmates as a team. The 3D models you create are used directly by 3D printers and the laser engraver to create real physical objects. The following programs are used: Autodesk Fusion, Solidworks, and MASTERCAM.
