Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.)
Degree in Architectural & Civil Project Design & Development

The Architectural & Civil Project Design & Development CADD program focuses on the development and understanding of the design process. The disciplines are integrated in such a way that they continually complement one another. This program promotes and develops the skills necessary to take an architectural and civil conceptual idea through the development process in an efficient and sensible manner. Emphasis is placed on practical application through architectural and civil case studies, teamwork and “hands on” projects. This program will develop the CADD skills necessary to create designs and technical drawings for the architectural and civil career environments.

Upon completion of this program, the student will be able to demonstrate their understanding of basic architectural and civil design principles as well as the integration of the disciplines. Some of the areas of study covered, but not limited to, are:

• Architectural and civil CADD
• Architectural and civil design principles
• Physics, statics, strengths & properties of materials
• Contour mapping & surveying
• Processes utilized in the design of both commercial and residential structures
• Site development procedures
