This course covers the theory, conventions, standards and procedures associated with the preparation of architectural and structural drawings. Topics include floor plans, elevations sections, details, scaling and dimensions, symbols, specifications and structural information. Detailed discussions of orthographic drawings, pictorial drawings, sectional and auxiliary views will help the student to develop the skills necessary to properly read blueprints.
- Lecturer: Erika Creque
This technical course is a must for all mechanics who wish to master the areas of Automotive Electrical and Electronics. It starts
with the basics of electricity including circuit principles, Ohm’s law, electrical wiring and schematic, modern ignition systems,
batteries, starters and alternators. This course advances to automotive electronics and provides the opportunity to work with
modern automotive computerised vehicles and fuel injection systems diagnostics and repairs.
- Lecturer: Brendan Brodie
This course is designed to enable the student to understand the principles of computer aided drafting. Computers using drafting and graphic software in the field of drafting, architecture and engineering have become widely used for design, analysis and generation of drawings. This course delivers the latest techniques and software and provides students with a sound foundation for doing drafting.
- Lecturer: Erika Creque
This course is designed to enable the student to understand both the principles of drafting and computerisation. It is a hands-on course designed to teach the newest techniques in drafting on personal computers. (Prerequisite: CSC104)
- Lecturer: Orion Joseph
This course focuses on the Generation,
Transmission and Distribution of electrical energy.
The physical laws of science governing electrical
energy, materials, devices, operational procedures,
system standards are presented to the student
to enable them carry out basic analysis on the
status of operating devices, communicate to
other technical staff and aid in restoring a power
system if a fault occurs. (Prerequisite: EET 100)
- Lecturer: Clyde Potter

Areas to be covered include: Basic electronic devices, Integrated Circuits, Digital Circuits, Filters, Oscillators, Amplifiers and Power Supplies. Lab included.
- Lecturer: Hector Penn
The course in freehand drawing and sketching is offered to continue the development of hand eye coordination in the graphical representation of ideas. Sketching is taught as a form of documentation as well as technical expression. Principles of 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional drawing are developed primarily pictorial drawing. Architectural and building design elements, mechanical parts, transportation systems and general solid and plane geometry are the focal applications of this course.
- Lecturer: Erika Creque
Introduction to the procedures used to acquire field data with applications in various surveying activities and the use of survey equipment in the field. Topics include: uses and precision of surveys, distance measurement, the level, the transit, the levelling rod, preliminary surveys, elevation measurement, angular measurement, differential and profile levelling. (Prerequisite: MAT051 or 115 or CXC Mathematics or Lecturer Permission)
- Lecturer: Desmond Alexis
This is an introductory course in engineering drawing. Topics include drafting instruments, introduction to computer aided drafting (CAD), drawing materials, geometric constructions, orthographic and pictorial drawing. Emphasis will be placed on drawing presentations using international standards. The main objective will be to develop the student’s skills which will be applied to the graphic communication of engineering ideas.
- Lecturer: Erika Creque
This course will expose students to autobody shops which are potentially exposed to a variety of chemical and physical hazards. Chemical hazards may include volatile organics from paints, fillers and solvents; diisocyanates, polyisocyanates, and hexavalent chromium from spray painting operations; silica from sandblasting operations; dusts from sanding; and metal fumes from welding and cutting. Physical hazards include repetitive stress and other ergonomic injuries, noise, lifts, cutting tools, and oil and grease on walking surfaces.
