Course detail

Automotive industry CAD

FSI-QC0Acad. year: 2020/2021

The course CAD offers necessary information to manage constructional projects by use of computer system CATIA. The students learn how to compose the constructional documentation in an optimal way. They also realize that CAD is only a support of constructional process which speeds up the work and makes it more effective, but definitely cannot substitute creative designer’s work and required technical knowledge.
