Type of Assessment - Last names A-L
The exam consists of a test structured as follows:
- a written examination (using computer) which would test the student's
ability to represent a part in a CAD environment;
- a written examination (using computer) which would test the student's
ability to develop a simple algorithm in Matlab/Scilab environment.

MODULE A: CAD
The contents of this course are basically a graded course of work,
consisting of lessons giving explanations and examples of methods of
constructions, followed by exercises which allow the students to practise
what has been learned in each lessons. AutoCAD is very complex
computer-aided design (CAD) software package. A 30 hour course cannot
possibly cover the complexities of all the methods for constructing 2D
drawings available when working with AutoCAD. However, it is hoped that
by the time the students has worked through the contents of the course,
they will be sufficiently skilled with the methods of producing drawing
with the software, will be able to go on to more advanced constructions
with its use, and will have gained an interest in the more advanced
possibilities available when using AutoCAD.
1. Make the Transition from Paper to CAD
2. An Introduction to AutoCAD
3. Work with Commands
4. Change Views
5. Drawing Setup
6. Precision Drawing
7. Make Modifications
8. Add Symbols and Hatches
9. Add Text to a Drawing
10. Add Dimensions
11. Create Layouts and Plots
MODULE B: PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTALS
The course is meant to provide the required knowledge for the solution of
simple engineering and mathematical problems. Therefore, the aim of
the course is the acquisition of skills required to implement simple
algorithms using calculation software such as MATLAB / Scilab.
Laboratory lessons are relevant part of the course where such software
packages will be used.
1. Analysis and Programming
2. Algorithms and flowcharts
3. MATLAB/Scilab Work environment
4. Managing Variables
5. Iterative scheme
6. Control Instructions
7. Graphics
