The Drafting and Design Technology program is a two-year technical program designed to give the student essential knowledge and skills required for efficient and productive performance in the drafting field.  Louisiana Technical College grants an Associate of Applied Science Degree or a Diploma to students upon satisfactory completion of the curriculum and assists in placing students in gainful employment.  Certificates are also offered to those needing a background in drafting without gaining all of the skills required to be employed as a drafter. 

The Drafting and Design Technology Program provides students with instruction in fundamental manual drafting skills with introductory training in several drafting disciplines and fundamentals in computer-aided drafting. Students can elect to enhance their training by selecting a specialized area that includes intensive applications of computer-aided drafting.
