Synopsis

The  rationale  for  this unit is to motivate  students  by  fostering
creativity  and introducing conceptual design, computer  aided  design
and  drafting early in the course. Early training and practice in  the
engineering  design method, the introduction to engineering  handbooks
and  commercial  catalogues is necessary for  a  foundation  to  which
students can relate future studies in the more advanced units  of  the
course.  Engineers need skills in graphical communication and  spatial
vision in the practice of their profession.
