degree program or the Connecticut College of Technology Technological Studies A.S. Students who complete the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) certificate program and decide to pursue an associate in science degree may apply all of their credits towards the Industrial Technology A.S. Courses are offered during daytime and/or evening hours. Students may enroll in this program full- or part-time. CAD technology in the core of the certificate program is AutoCAD integrated with Pro/ENGINEER solid-modeling and rendering technology, both predominant technology leaders in CAD/solid-modeling.Īll technical manufacturing and engineering design in today’s high-technology business and industry uses computer-based, computer-aided design technologies that integrate the design, engineering and manufacturing design analysis–and manufacturing of complex products and product parts, sub-assemblies, and assemblies–into a single, technically coherent process. Basic training in computer technology is included to prepare students for the two-dimensional, three-dimensional and solid-modeling computer-aided design technology in the program. To provide the necessary technical education base, the program also includes education and training in applied technical mathematics, engineering drawing, and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing skills. The Computer-Aided Design (CAD) certificate program provides students with career-based training in mechanical design using computer-aided drafting/design technology.
