Students who complete this certificate are encouraged to then pursue the Mechanical Design or CADD Certificate of Achievement and continue their engineering education.\n\n##### Program Student Learning Outcome\n\nUpon completion of this program students will be able to critically analyze the needs of the audience or end user of the model and select the optimal model media and presentation style (multi-view, shading, dimensioning, etc.) based on the often conflicting demands of user needs, time and budget constraints, and available technology (plotters, projectors, RP machines, etc.)."
