WOOD, DESIGN, AND APPLICATIONS PROGRAM OF STUDY
Courses must be taken in sequence.
This program will develop both hands-on fabrication skills as well as computer aided design (CAD) skills. Students will use a variety of woodworking hand tools, stationary power tools, as well as computer numerically controlled (CNC) routers, laser engravers, and 3D printers to practice traditional and advanced manufacturing and construction processes. Woodworking skills will be learned, enabling student to fabricate the projects they design. Students will learn CAD skills by designing both architecture and products throughout all four courses. This program will prepare students for an AutoDesk industry certification. Students will practice and apply the planning and management skills necessary for careers in manufacturing, architecture, design, management and similar industries. Projects will become increasingly more complex, building on prior skills throughout the four courses, refining the student’s skills to tackle projects from start to finish.
Course materials fees are determined based on the type and amount of materials used to complete projects
