Drafting/Virtual Reality Technology

Entry: Fall Term
Length: 7 terms (21 months)
Degree: Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) - a Diploma option is available after the first three terms

The Drafting/Virtual Reality Technology program will prepare you to enter the industrial world as a professional drafter. This unique program gives you skills in AutoCAD, Pro-Engineer, and Virtual Reality software. These are the most prominent and up-to-date packages in industry today. You'll translate the ideas, sketches, and specifications of engineers and designers into workable plans, to be used in product fabrication and virtual prototyping.
