ĬAD is an important industrial art extensively used in many applications, including automotive, shipbuilding, and aerospace industries, industrial and architectural design, prosthetics, and many more. As in the manual drafting of technical and engineering drawings, the output of CAD must convey information, such as materials, processes, dimensions, and tolerances, according to application-specific conventions.ĬAD may be used to design curves and figures in two-dimensional (2D) space or curves, surfaces, and solids in three-dimensional (3D) space. However, it involves more than just shapes. ĬAD software for mechanical design uses either vector-based graphics to depict the objects of traditional drafting, or may also produce raster graphics showing the overall appearance of designed objects. In mechanical design it is known as mechanical design automation ( MDA) or computer-aided drafting ( CAD), which includes the process of creating a technical drawing with the use of computer software. Its use in designing electronic systems is known as electronic design automation ( EDA). The term CADD (for c omputer aided design and drafting) is also used. CAD output is often in the form of electronic files for print, machining, or other manufacturing operations. Designs made through CAD software are helpful in protecting products and inventions when used in patent applications. This software is used to increase the productivity of the designer, improve the quality of design, improve communications through documentation, and to create a database for manufacturing. Tech in CAD/CAM imparts, through a holistic curriculum, skills to apply computer and scientific principles to solve problems related to manufacturing.Ĭandidates interested in learning the discipline at an advanced level with ample knowledge of computer- based tools, techniques and methods employed in product- designing may opt for this program.Computer-aided design ( CAD) is the use of computers (or workstations) to aid in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of a design. It is aimed at building drafting skills in electronic structures.

Candidates need to complete graduation in a relevant discipline from a recognized university as minimum eligibility criterion.ĬAD/CAM engineering is a specialization in operation, use and application of computer software to create design for a variety of industries.

Master of Technology in Computer Aided Design & Computer Aided Manufacturing is a 2 years full time postgraduate course which is divided into 4 semesters.
