Drafting

Drafting is a professional discipline that deals with composing drawings that visually communicate how something functions or is constructed.

Our drafting technology program offers drafting for transfer (AA-T) degrees, math and science associate's degrees and certificates.

At Norco College, we offer a Drafting Technology program that will help you learn how to create technical drawings, 3D designs, and blueprints of a product or structure. Drafting Technology students learn in depth and hands on how to compose drawings with computer programs that visually communicate how something functions or is constructed.

Norco College student Lisseth Olmos was selected as the 2024 Student of Distinction in the discipline of Drafting. She was nominated by Professor of Drafting Farshid Mirzaei.
