What You'll Learn

Key competencies developed through this program

Auto-populated·from NSX Competency Framework

Mastery: developing (Level 2)(based on Associate's Degree)

  • Detailed design drawings — produce complete mechanical equipment drawings and specifications with reduced oversight using CAD software.
  • Three-dimensional models — develop accurate 3D part and assembly models in CAD software for routine mechanical components.
  • Schematic and angle views — independently lay out functional relationship diagrams depicting component assemblies in standard manufacturing contexts.
  • Design modifications — revise existing drawings to correct documented operating deficiencies based on engineering feedback and change orders.
  • Specification analysis — review engineering sketches, ideas, and related data to identify design factors affecting component geometry and fit.
  • Mathematical computation — apply trigonometric and algebraic formulas to calculate part dimensions and tolerances using computer-assisted equipment.
  • Scale blueprints — draft specialty items such as machine guards or fixture components at full or reduced scale from engineering concepts.
  • Materials requirements data — cross-reference material dimensions and part numbers against MRP or ERP software records to confirm accuracy.
  • Graphics and rendering software — produce clear presentation-quality images of mechanical assemblies for internal design reviews.
  • Interpersonal coordination — communicate drawing status updates and clarifying questions to engineers and production staff during project meetings.
