Architecture, Engineering & Construction Technologies

Posted:

If you’re good at solving problems, are detail-oriented, and enjoy creating designs and seeing them take shape, this program might be the perfect fit for you.

About the Program

Our Architecture, Engineering and Construction Technologies (AEC) program will prepare you for immediate employment as architectural or engineering drawing technicians, or construction management interns. If you are already employed in this field, our AEC program can help you improve your knowledge and skills, providing you with advancement opportunities.

The emphasis of this program is on state-of-the-art technologies that are used in building construction documentation. These include 2D and 3D drawing with Auto CAD, 3D Building Information Modeling (BIM) Autodesk Revit, visualization tools like 3DS Max and Autodesk Fusion, Lumion rendering software, Trimble Sketchup 3D modeling software, ProCore Project management software, ProEst estimating software, and Microsoft Project Scheduling software. Specialized equipment, such as total station surveying equipment, 3D LIDAR Scanners, additive manufacturing technologies, including 3D scanning and 3D printing, and virtual reality and augmented reality technologies.

We also offer continuing education CAD training in Revit and AutoCAD through a partnership with the Pacific Center of Advanced Technology Training (PCATT), so you can always keep your skills up-to-date – even after graduation!
