Architectural Drafting
The Architectural Drafting degree is designed to assist students in preparing architectural and structural construction documents, such as: residential projects, schools, office spaces, and commercial/industrial buildings. In addition, the students develop skills in the production of presentational free-hand drawings, working/ study models, and various computer generated graphics. These means allow students to utilize specialized CAD software in solving design challenges both technically and graphically.
