COURSE : DEE3061 COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN

CREDIT(S) : 1

PREREQUISITE(S) : NONE

SYNOPSIS

COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN provides knowledge and exposure on the usage of

AutoCAD software. The course focuses on the application of the software to produce
drawings of graphics, electrical / electronic component symbols, circuit schematics
and electrical wiring layout diagram. The skills acquired from this course will also
equip students with the ability to learn and use other similar software.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)

Upon completion of this course students should be able to:

1. apply computer aided design concept, applications and capabilities in electrical

engineering environment. (C3, PL01)

2. manipulate the draw and edit commands and the various data input techniques
in AutoCAD software to reproduce given simple and complex technical drawings.
(P4, PLO5)

3. construct the technical graphics, electronic circuits schematics and electrical

wiring layout diagrams using AutoCAD software based on American/British
technical symbol standard. (P4, PLO5)

ASSESSMENT

The course assessment comprises two components, namely:

i. Coursework Assessment (CA) - 100%

Coursework assessments that measures knowledge, practical skills and generic skills are carried out in the form of continuous
assessment. Coursework assessments total score comprises the knowledge and practical marks ONLY. It does not include the mark of
generic skills.

ii. Final Examination Assessment (FE) - NONE

Final examination is carried out at the end of the semester.
