Industrial Design Certificate
Student in the certificate curriculum will be eligible to take the Autodesk certification in specific Autodesk software at an Autodesk Certified Training Center. Mastercam offers a certification exam. NIMS certification opportunities available in MFGT 2100.
Industrial Design Certificate
NC State’s Engineering Design certificate program allows students to complete a series of coordinated courses in a shorter period of time than an associate degree. Students in associate degree programs may benefit from adding a certificate to their areas of expertise. A minimum of a 2.00 grade-point average must be obtained for all required courses in order to receive a certificate.
This certificate is eligible for federal financial aid.
Upon successful completion of a certificate program, a Certificate Request form must be completed in the Student Records Office in order to receive a certificate.

Year One
Fall Semester
ENRD 2260 - Solid Modeling
The student will use current parametric modeling software to create 3D models and produce various drawing views such as orthographic, isometric, sectional and auxiliary views from these models and generate a bill of materials as well as demonstrate the ability to bi-directionally associate between the model and the drawing. The student will also determine the basic physical properties of the model such as area, mass and volume. The student will also apply rigid body animation techniques to a solid model. Semesters available: Day - F Evening - F
ENRD 2670 - Intro to 3 D Architectural Design
This is a course in Architectural Design using 3D parametric software. The student will create 3D buildings from basic 2D sketches using parametric dimensioning and constraints. Elevation views and cross sections will be created from the 3D building. Lights and furniture will be placed. The student will also create realistic presentation view and plot the finished results.
MATH 1070 - Applied Geometry & Trigonometry
This course is a study of basic algebra, basic geometry, and an introduction to trigonometry. The class will review signed numbers and their operations, exponents, scientific notations, logarithms and systems of measurements. This class will also cover algebraic expressions and solving equations with one variable using shop problems and shop formulas and also will use shop problems for statements of comparison and mixture proportions. The basic geometry will cover points, planes, lines, polygons, triangles, circles and the application of these concepts. We will use key definitions in trigonometry to solve sides and angles of a triangle.
MFGT 1010 - Industrial Blueprint Reading
Blueprint interpretation is a core skill for Engineers and Apprentices. Students will learn the fundamentals of orthographic projection, arrangement of views, application of dimensions and tolerances, machining and finishing processes, and more. Materials presented conform to the latest ANSI standards and ISO specifications. Sample prints in both standard and metric format.
MFGT 1110 - Manufacturing Processes
This course offers an introduction to manufacturing methods and basic machine tool operation. Students will be provided the background needed to read and interpret technical drawings and proper use of a variety of inspection and measuring tools. Students will also develop and use shop documents such as job plans and blueprints. Lab activities include Soldering, Electroplating, CNC Engraving, Mold making, Polymer Resin and Sheet Metal fabrication. Diligent attention is given to safety in the modern manufacturing environment. OET010 Manufacturing Processes Semesters Offered: Day - F, Sp Evening - F, Sp
MFGT 2100 - Quality Control and Spc
This course covers basic manufacturing concepts of Quality Control, SPC (Statistical Process Control), Lean Manufacturing, and other principles, objectives and influencing factors of production control. Students learn about planning and scheduling applications as well as interpretation and application of GDT to prints and inspection settings. Students may take NIMS (National Institute for Metalworking Skills) certification exam in Materials, Measurement and Safety. Semesters Offered: Day - Sp Evening - Sp
Spring Semester
ARTS 1010 - Drawing I
This course presents drawing concepts that can serve as a foundation for drawing itself and benefit other visual arts disciplines. The basic fundamentals of drawing, line form, gesture, and spatial illusion, perspective, composition, and use of light & shadow to describe space and volume. Studio practice will emphasize observational drawing to provide concrete and measurable examples of pictorial space. (TAG# OAH001)
ENRD 2150 - Computer Aided Design I
This course is designed to introduce the student to fundamentals of Computer Aided Drafting and 3D Modeling. The student will create single-view, multi-view, sectional, and auxiliary view drawings with dimensions and tolerances. The student will also draw a multiple sheet/multiple part assembly drawing complete with a bill of materials. TAG: OET012CAD - CTAG: CTMET005
MFGT 2010 - Jig and Fixture Design
Tool design is the process of designing and developing the tools, methods, and techniques necessary to improve manufacturing efficiency and productivity. Students use Solid Modeling software to design tools used in fabricating, welding, and inspection applications.
