Course Overview

Engineering/Architectural Graphics - part I - Orthographic projection online course is a short-term core program offered by Swayam in association with IIT Roorkee. This eight-week-long course falls under the architecture and planning category. It aims to introduce the study of engineering graphics that architects and engineers use to design new products.

The Engineering/Architectural Graphics part I certification syllabus explores the grammar and vocabulary of engineering graphics and its distinct components that include 2D and 3D. This program's curriculum will mainly focus on the 2D section of graphics.  It will prepare you to use the techniques and tools necessary in engineering.

Further, the Engineering/Architectural Graphics part I training includes eight assignments during the course's tenure and a proctored exam at the end, which is optional. This exam along with the assignments will help you obtain a digital and verified certificate after finishing all the modules. You can attach the certificate to your resume after finishing the course.
