Professional CAD - Interior Design Certificate

Additional information available on the Computer Aided Drafting and Design – Mechanical Department website.

The Professional CAD - Interior Design certificate is designed for students to learn advanced techniques using 2D AutoCAD and 3D Autodesk Revit software to enhance their computer aided drafting and interior design skills and increase their ability to portray design advanced concepts through the rendered interior spaces. Emphasis is placed on producing photorealistic 3-dimensional (3D) renderings and models that are specific to interior building elements and spaces through advanced modeling techniques such as advanced lighting, materials, and rendering techniques.

Program Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of the Professional CAD - Interior Design certificate, students should be able to:

• Design innovative interior projects to include floor plans, dimensions, elevations, sections, details, specification sheets, lighting, special features and finishes
• Produce construction documents (e.g., floor plans, elevations, sections, details, 3D models, templates, and presentations) using Autodesk Revit Architecture software
• Create 3D visualization models and presentations for interior design applications using advanced Autodesk Revit software
• Apply materials, lighting, and cameras to generate walk-through presentations
• Produce presentation quality renderings of 3D interior design and spaces
