    SYLLABUS

    MEC202- Engineering Drawing and Computer Aided Design 1

    Course Description:
    This course introduces methods used to communicate design ideas through the
    technique of 2D & 3D computer-aided design software using current versions of
    Autodesk INVENTOR and AutoCAD software. The application of some mathematical
    principles to solving engineering problems is included.

    Goals:
    1. To provide the engineering student with an understanding graphic languages used to
    create engineering drawings.

    2. To have each student achieve a measurable level of proficiency in creating and


    interpreting freehand technical sketches to record design ideas and to develop
    strategies to convert these sketches into engineering drawings.

    3. To have each student achieve a measurable level of proficiency in using current


    versions of INVENTOR and AutoCAD drafting software to produce industry standard
    CAD drawings

    LIST OF TOPICS:
    1. Introduction to the role of the computer in engineering design; hardware and
    software tools for computer-aided design.
    2. Basic computer graphics: constructing 2D shapes, coordinate entry methods,
    editing tools, dimensioning, object properties.
    3. Freehand sketching and visualization techniques.
    4. Advanced graphic techniques: Orthographic, auxiliary and section views,
    plotting .
    5. Feature based Parametric Solid modeling.
    6. Final project.

    Computer Usage:
    Windows XP Pro workstations, AutoCAD and Inventor software and Blackboard
    Instructional Software.

    Homework assignments:
    CAD Drawing and Freehand sketching assignments using the installed software.

    Prerequisites:
    Mechanical Engineering Student or permission of MEC Department Chairman.
    Attendance:
    You are expected to attend each session. The beginning part of each class will be used
    for the introduction of new material. The remainder of the class will be for the
    completion of assigned work. Additional lab open hours will be posted.

    Grading:
    Each homework assignment has a point value associated with it based on the
    instructor’s assessment of the degree of difficulty and time required for its completion.
    Achieving the maximum point value for each homework requires that the student
    follows the procedures outlined in the assignment introduction, that the student
    adheres to all relevant conventions associated with the style of drawing being done and
    that it be submitted on time.
    The homework assignments and final project are all weighted (the weight value reflects
    the assignment’s importance compared to the other assignments.) The student’s final
    course grade is the percentage of the maximum point total achieved converted to a
    letter grade using the University’s standard formula.

    files.

    List of Course Specific Outcomes:

    O7. The ability to communicate effectively (10)

    Engineering graphics is an essential tool for every engineer. Being able to create a
    drawing gives a person’s thoughts visible form. Drawings can communicate these ideas
    effectively. The specialized nature of this course allows the student to produce these
    drawings using concepts and standards that permit the drawing to be created and read
    accurately.

    ALL of the homework assignments are designed to meet this outcome.


    O11. The ability to use modern engineering techniques, skills, and
    computing tools necessary for engineering practice (10)

    CAD programs, AutoCAD and Autodesk INVENTOR, are used for homework and projects
    as well as using the Windows operating system, Network logon procedures, file storage
    and retrieval, and other common computer user tasks.
    Each new homework assignment introduces another set of drawing skills. These
    new shills in combination with those from previous assignments are used to produce
    more complex drawings. Completion of all of the homework assignments gives students
    a fundamental understanding of modern Computer Aided Drafting and Design software.

    Method of Outcomes Assessment


    Outcome 7: graded homework and final project.
    Outcome 11: graded homework and final project.

    your course work, please contact Disability Support Services, ECC (Educational
    Communications Center) Building, room128, (631) 632-6748. They will determine with
    you what accommodations, if any, are necessary and appropriate. All information and
    documentation is confidential.

    Academic Integrity:
    Each student must pursue his or her academic goals honestly and be personally
    accountable for all submitted work. Representing another person's work as your own is
    always wrong. Faculty are required to report any suspected instances of academic
    dishonesty to the Academic Judiciary. Faculty in the Health Sciences Center (School of
    Health Technology & Management, Nursing, Social Welfare, Dental Medicine) and
    School of Medicine are required to follow their school-specific procedures. For more
    comprehensive information on academic integrity, including categories of academic
    dishonesty, please refer to the academic judiciary website at

    Critical Incident Management:


    Stony Brook University expects students to respect the rights, privileges, and
    property of other people. Faculty are required to report to the Office of Judicial Affairs
    any disruptive behavior that interrupts their ability to teach, compromises the safety of
    the learning environment, or inhibits students' ability to learn. Faculty in the HSC
    schools and the School of Medicine are required to follow their school-specific
    procedures.
