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

The Civil & Mechanical 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 Civil & Mechanical conceptual idea through the development process in an efficient and sensible manner. Emphasis is placed on practical application through Civil & Mechanical case studies, teamwork and “hands on” projects. This course will develop the CADD skills necessary to create designs and technical drawings for the civil and mechanical career environments.

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

• Civil & mechanical CADD
• Civil & mechanical design principles
• Physics, statics, strengths & properties of materials
• Contour mapping & surveying
• Site development procedures
