SUBJECTS OF INSTRUCTION in the DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

ME 1 Engineering Drawing and Descriptive Geometry.

The objective of this course is the development of the
students’ ability and judgment in the field of engineering
drawing. The work of the course is based upon case studies
accompanied by short informal lectures upon modern
commercial practice and upon the theory on which such
practice is based. Emphasis is placed on speed, accuracy,
neatness and on the techniques by which these are obtained.

The course includes study of and practice in lettering,
line work, projection, conventions, tracing, sketching,
shop standards, the use of notes, the reading of blue
prints, the reading of layout drawings, pictorial
representation, developments, and checking as applied to
commercial engineering drawing.

ME 2 Engineering Drawing. Prerequisite ME 1.

The principles laid down in the previous year’s work are
applied to a series of problems in structural drafting,
concrete work, gear drawing developments, and welded steel
work. Such additional work in descriptive geometry as is
necessary for each drawing is given as the work develops.
An opportunity is given to learn modern drafting practice,
the way a drafting room is managed, and to develop the
basis for future courses in design and engineering.

ME 7 Shop Practice.

A course for sophomore mechanical students, given in two
parts.

Part 1--Surveying and Machine Layout. Three hours a week
for half a semester are devoted to laboratory work in
machine layout. This includes surveys of existing equipment
and exercises in establishing lines and elevations for
setting machines and equipment.
