Description

CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:

The fundamentals of graphical communication in order to help students think and communicate visually in the context of engineering design. The course focuses on concepts such as isometric, multi-view sketches, section view, and auxiliary views, tolerancing and dimensioning, as well as fundamentals of schematics and printed circuit boards design. Various computer aided design software are used. Students with credit for SEE 100 may not take this course for further credit.

COURSE DETAILS:

The course teaches the fundamentals of graphical communication in order to help students think and communicate visually in the context of engineering design. The course focuses on representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensional space using various views, such as isometric, multi-view sketches, and section view, and auxiliary views. Tolerancing and dimensioning, as well as notation for manufacturing will also be discussed. Through the use of computer aided design (CAD) tools, students will apply the theory to real-world problems where they will be required to dissect, graphically represent, and redesign Mechatronic products.

With the use of computer aided design (CAD) tools, students learn the theory and practice of design by dissecting, graphically representing, and redesigning products.

COURSE-LEVEL EDUCATIONAL GOALS:

When you complete the course, you would enhance your knowledge base, develop and hone investigation and problem analysis skills, be introduced to design and hone constraint identification and design generation skills, gain advance knowledge in SolidWorks and technical drawing as well as be introduced to the role of engineer in society. Specifically

  • Gain working knowledge of Engineering Drawing and SolidWorks.
  • Gain knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
  • Apply concept of visualization and basic math to converting 2D drawings to 3D modeling.
  • Application of knowledge to solve preliminary design problems.
  • Introduced to design process and solutions.
  • Introduced to product life cycle cost.
  • Introduced to Design for Manufacturing and Design for Sustainability.

Registrar Notes:

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: YOUR WORK, YOUR SUCCESS

SFU’s Academic Integrity website http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating. Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.

Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the university community. Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the university. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the university. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
