Admission Dates: Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer
The Engineering Graphics Technician certificate is a
one-year program designed to prepare a graphics
technician to work directly under the supervision of
an engineer or designer producing detailed drawings.
Engineering Graphics Technicians are specialists in
translating the rough sketches, 3D design models, layouts
and written specifications of engineers and designers
into a drawing showing the complete details and
specifications for the finished product under the close
direction of a supervisor.
Engineering Graphics Technician certificate graduates will:
be prepared for a range of entry level positions
in the mechanical engineering field with limited
responsibilities and scope
identify and explain common symbols, materials,
scales, and terminology used in the field
demonstrate familiarity with the many tools and
techniques associated with design and its application
in the work place
exhibit analytical thought, informed judgment, and
ethical behavior
produce a professional resume, cover letter, and
industry ready portfolio
demonstrate critical thinking, teamwork,
communication, intercultural appreciation, and
technical and information literacy skills
Lake Washington Institute of Technology does not
offer every course each quarter. It is the student’s
responsibility to consult the Class Schedule and work out
an individual schedule with an adviser or counselor. Any
developmental coursework a student may be required to
complete may increase the program length.
