Kankakee Community College Course prefix and number: DRFT 2134 Course title: AutoCAD III Semester: Fall 2014 Credit hours: 4 Lecture hours: 2.5 Lab hours: 3 Catalog description: Prerequisite: DRFT 2114, AutoCAD I This course explores the three-dimensional construction and viewing capabilities of AutoCAD. Topics covered include: user coordinate systems, visual styles, composite solid modeling and editing, rendering, animation, and creating 2-D drawings from 3-D models. Students will create photo-realistic renderings and animations from the composite solids they create. Students will utilize a rapid prototyper (3D printer) to produce 3D plastic parts of their own design.
