The South Seattle Community College Technical Drafting and Design Program is designed to produce graduates with both drafting and basic design capabilities. This program allows students to focus on mechanical or civil drafting and design with technical electives to support their selection. A Technical Drafting Certificate can be completed in three or four quarters. An Associate of Applied Science Degree in Technical Drafting and Design involves a second year of study and is sought by major employers. Each student elects to major in civil or mechanical drafting and design.
Students then take both required and approved technical elective courses to complete their program.
