For architects, engineering designers, CAD drafters and builders, that plan comes in the form of working drawings produced by technically talented and well-trained individuals. If you have a desire to express your knowledge through computer aided design software, San Jacinto College can give you the skills you need to make your way into this exciting field. This degree allows you to pursue careers that strike a satisfying balance between creativity, technical proficiency and attention to detail. You can make yourself an indispensable asset in a variety of fields, such as architecture, manufacturing, engineering, construction and the oil and gas industry, with a degree in engineering design graphics. The engineering design graphics program at San Jacinto College: Trains students to translate the ideas of designers, engineers and architects from rough sketches, design layouts, specifications and calculations into working drawings, maps, plans, illustrations and 3D models. Offers students the skills needed to prepare technical drawings and/or 3D models using Computer Aided Drafting, design and 3D modeling software. Offers degree plans in three areas: CAREER OUTLOOK Growth in Houston s diversified job markets has created employment openings for drafters.

4 ENGINEERING DESIGN GRAPHICS ARCHITECTURAL/CIVIL/STRUCTURAL SPECIALTY (3DFT-A) Associate of Applied Science Degree Engineering Design Graphics (EDG) is a technical field where engineering data is communicated through drawings and three-dimensional models. Drafters provide support to designers, architects and all types of engineers, preparing documentation and creating finished drawings for production in the engineering, construction or manufacturing industries. Drafters translate the ideas of engineers and architects from rough sketches, design layouts, specifications and calculations into working drawings, maps, plans, illustrations and 3D models which are used in producing marketable products. They prepare drawings and/or 3D models using computer aided drafting, design, and 3D modeling software in the fields of mechanical, petrochemical, architectural, civil and structural. The EDG department provides two certificate levels and associate of applied science degree options.
