How To Manage Resources Wisely
The study of economics is more than a theoretical exercise. It’s the deep dive into supply and demand, scarcity and wealth, creation and consumption. Economics applies to every endeavor, whether it’s starting your own business or advising governments on financial policies and programs. It’s how a society apportions goods and services.
Economics is a great accompaniment to any major you choose to pursue because you’ll not only gain the skills needed to understand complex markets but come away with strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as the business acumen necessary to succeed in the professional world.

The ability to draw complex concepts, objects, and environments from the imagination is absolutely essential to the industrial and transportation design professions. Visual communication of physical objects is exemplified throughout this course. The students will be introduced to the basic tools and methodologies of sketching, both free-hand and digitally. Extensive information is presented on the correct usage of tools, basic perspective, composition, light and shadow, and line dynamics. Basic geometrical 3-view drawings and 3D CAD software will be introduced, as well, that will support and validate the reality of expressed ideas. This class requires extensive and repetitive practice to develop the skills of sketching and visual communication.
