DDS 240 - Electrical Drafting and
Design Practicum
Utilizes the full range of drafting and design skills developed in the program to plan and finish a product graphically. A simulated industrial design problem is provided that requires synthesis of knowledge and techniques to produce schematics, wiring diagrams, component layouts, multi-layer printed circuit boards, plate electromechanical designs, chassis layouts, or other elements required for complete graphical description and presentation of the finished product. Use of CAD is preferred. Topics include: electrical/electronics theory, electrical design, electrical layout, electrical advanced drafting and design, problem solving, and presentation.
