Course Description:
The course explores fundamental CAD software concepts, user interfaces, and operational features. Covers architectural applications and computer visualization within CAD, emphasizing 2D/3D design, solid modeling, layout design, and effective presentation techniques. Includes practical and theoretical aspects, spanning basic to complex 2D and 3D design exercises.

Competences:
