Whether it’s as large as a high-rise building or as small as a shed, nothing can be built without first envisioning a plan — a blueprint, sketch or drawing detailing everything a project needs for completion. Drafting is a universal language; it is the common language used in many major industries as a first step to bringing this vision to life. 

DDT’s Architectural/Civil Drafting Specialization provides the coursework to prepare for drafting applications in commercial architecture; building structures; mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems for buildings; site work; and many other areas of construction-related drafting. During your educational training at TSTC, you will use the latest in computer software and hardware to gain valuable experience utilizing today's most popular drafting tool — Computer-Aided Drafting, or CAD, systems. TSTC's DDT program provides students with not only the theory, but more than 900 hours in working lab environments.
