Due to inclement weather, all Wake Tech campuses are closed Wednesday. In-person classes are canceled, but online classes continue as scheduled. Many Wake Tech services are available virtually. Wake Tech employees who can work remotely should do so.
The Mechanical Design certificate program introduces students to computer-aided drafting and design (CAD) and solid modeling. Students will also explore the design of mechanisms using CAD and solid modeling. Coursework includes computer-aided drafting and design (using AutoCAD), solid modeling (using SolidWorks) and mechanisms.
The Mechanical Design certificate program cannot be completed in a single semester because students must complete a two-course sequence in computer-aided drafting and design.
