Course Synopsis:

This course introduces and elaborates designing and modeling techniques commonly used in mechanical and civil designs covering 2-D and 3-D geometry related to drafting and design of mechanical and structural components and/or systems in Biosystems Engineering. The primary software used is AUTODESK’s AutoCAD and Inventor Pro. 

​

Course Outcomes:

Ability to apply designing and modelling techniques to construct engineering drawing using CAD.
Ability to compose 2D and 3D model to produce solution related to the engineering drawing problem.
Ability to use Autodesk software to construct engineering model and evaluate behaviour of the constructed model.
Ability to propose and justify an engineering model by preparing written report.
