Course Learning Outcomes

Learning Outcomes	Program Outcomes	Teaching Methods	Assessment Methods
1) visualize, project and sketch using the free-hand technique, three-dimensional objects, compose missing lines and views in multiview drawings.	7	1,6	C,G
2) develop solid modeling skills by constructing 2D sketches, use them to create three dimensional objects via solid modeling techniques, assemble these parts, and finally create their technical drawings.	4	4,5	A,D,G
3) recognize the fundamentals of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing concepts, relate part tolerances with manufacturing processes.	9	1	A,D
4) develop design skills by decomposing a product via reverse engineering practice, search for its patents, and then by reconstructing it in the virtual domain.	6,7	1,5	D,E
