Jobs are available with architects, cities, counties, states, the federal government, engineering and surveying companies, mines, research and development companies, and the mechanical, structural steel, architectural development, electronics, construction, and fire protection industries. In addition, because of the broad nature of the Engineering Graphics and Design Technology program, graduates are prepared to succeed in most technological fields. For example, they can work as manufacturing, industrial engineering, and construction technicians. They can also work in functional areas of purchasing, estimating, bidding, plant management, quality control, expediting, and sales. Job dEScrIptIon – EnGInEErInG GrAphIcS And dESIGn tEchnoLoGY Engineering Graphics Technicians (formerly Drafters/Designers) translate ideas from design layouts, specifications, rough sketches, and calculations of engineers & architects into working drawings, maps, plans, and illustrations which are used in making products, structures, land development, and civil infrastructure. They prepare 3D computer models and 2D drawings using Computer Aided Drafting, Design, and 3D modeling systems. They perform design and drafting work in mechanical, electrical/electronic, structural, architectural, civil, piping, and technical illustration fields. They make mathematical calculations using algebra, trigonometry, plane and solid geometry, applied mechanics, strength of materials and basic physics. The Engineering Graphics Technician’s job requires working closely with both professional and nonprofessional people. They also do liaison work between the shop or field and the engineering office. It is essential they be neat in appearance and develop professional work habits. Job dEScrIptIon – LAnd SurvEYInG Surveying Technicians work out-of-doors doing surveys of property, roads, pipelines, subdivisions, and all types of construction projects. They may work in specialized fields such as topographic mapping, mine surveying, and hydrographic surveying. They use levels, total stations, and global positioning system equipment. They make mathematical calculations using algebra, trigonometry, and plane and solid geometry. They may also be called upon to produce drawings related to their work. Surveyors also work closely with the public so it is imperative that they develop good human relations skills and professional work habits. proGrAmS Students in the Engineering Graphics and Design Technology program may earn an Associate in Applied Science Degree, an Associate in Science Degree with a drafting pre-major or a Bachelor of Science in Technology Management Degree in Drafting Technology. Reminder: an overall grade point average of 2.0 (C) or above is required for graduation.
