Course Template File Specifications: This document outlines recommended settings for an AutoCAD template file. These settings are rudimentary and specific to my courses. They may not be suitable for other courses or production work.

Autodesk Student Community: Visit this site and create an account using your Ivy Tech e-mail address (required to register). This site includes some wonderful information for users of Autodesk products including AutoCAD. Of special interst is the software downloads area where students can download software for use in their courses. For this course students can download AutodeskAutoCAD Electrical software which includes all of the AutoCAD 2007 2D features and can be used for the majority of the assignments required for this course. Please note that the software also includes some electrical component features and the default user interface is somewhat different; however, with a little customization students should be able to find the tools they need.
