I designed this course to help you learn to use engineering graphics as a tool for mechanical design, by sketching, reading and visualizing objects to 2D views for manufacturing. This course will teach you the basics for getting started in the engineering design field, and will be a great foundation for learning 3D modeling design in more advanced courses. Also, you will learn why 2D design is still very important and useful in the manufacturing industry. I also designed this course to be easily understood in a very practical way.
