Branch of knowledge: Engineering and Architecture



Requirements (Subjects that are assumed to be known)
Students are expected to have completed Technical Drawing in the high school .
Objectives
Upon successful completion of this subject, students will be able to read, understand and develop engineering graphics, plans, drawings, drafts and sketches. To be able to use the systems for representation: their geometric foundations, symbols and standards To be able to draw and to define graphically ideas, designs and projects in a precise, clear , unique and standardized manner. To know the geometric and functional basis for 3D computer aided design (CAD). To use at least one 3D CAD program
Skills and learning outcomes
CB1: Students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education, and is usually at a level that, while relying on advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study. CE.FB5: Capacity for spatial vision and knowledge of graphic representation techniques, both by traditional methods of metric geometry and descriptive geometry, and by means of computer-aided design applications. RA1: Have basic knowledge and understanding of mathematics, basic sciences, and engineering within the aerospace field, including: behaviour of structures; thermodynamic cycles and fluid mechanics; the air navigation system, air traffic, and coordination with other means of transport; aerodynamic forces; flight dynamics; materials for aerospace use; manufacturing processes; airport infrastructures and buildings. In addition to a specific knowledge and understanding of the specific aircraft and aero-engine technologies in each of the subjects included in this degree.

Learning activities and methodology
There will be theoretical lessons and practical lesson in computer room. The objective is clearly practical and the students will demonstrate their skills by drawing. In addition to the exercises proposed during the classes, every student must elaborate a final design group project.
