Architectural and Engineering Technology

Learn the basics of both the architectural and machine design fields in Computer Aided Drafting (CAD). In the second year of the program you can choose either architectural or machine design, and your projects will reflect your individual career goals. Receive in-depth interaction and training to develop advanced drafting skills. Note that this course fulfills the State of New Hampshire requirement for computer education. This is also a Running Start Course and students can receive college credit with teacher approval. Each year several students participate in the state VICA competition, most of who have then gone on to compete in the nationals.
