SYLLABUS



Revised June 2014

OVERVIEW:
             
Drafting courses are required in every technology and engineering programs therefore there are certain skills for the students needed to learn in order to pass their specialized course. Drafting course helps learners develop these skills quickly and conveniently. This General Drafting Portfolio follows a structured independent 4 Stages of approach of which starts with the basics and gradually develops fundamental skills with both traditional drafting tools and Computer Aided Drawing Tools.
