Tech designers or drafters are experts in technical communication through drawings and computer modeling, and, with the aide of computers, can participate in the creation of elaborate designs with accuracy and efficiency. Drafters are classified according to their field of work. OC offers students four specialties: Architectural Design Architectural drafters draw plans and digital models for houses, office complexes, shopping centers, schools and other building types. They participate in the design process that creates the built environment in which we live. Civil Design Civil drafters prepare drawings and topographical and relief maps used in civil engineering projects such as highways, bridges, pipelines and water projects. Mechanical Technology Mechanical drafters prepare working diagrams of machinery and mechanical devices including dimensions, fastening methods and other engineering information.
