A pre-engineering program is intended to give engineering students the core courses in engineering before transferring to a different university to finish their bachelor’s degree. One course that usually is taught in pre-engineering programs is engineering graphics. The requirements for such a course are quite varied depending on the school and the engineering discipline to which the student transfers. This paper discusses the specific issues that arise in developing an engineering graphics course for a pre-engineering program. An outline of the course is presented including the material taught, homework assignment structure, timelines, design projects, and assessment of students’ work. Instructor and student reactions to the newly designed course are discussed, including their views on the relevancy, work load, and overall reaction.
