 RATIONALE

Core skills enhance knowledge, analytical ability, problem solving ability,

understanding or comprehending scientific principles and drawings & designs also. At the
same time it creates the base for achieving Hard skills. To carry out any skill related task
knowledge about basic Engineering Drawing is essential as drawing is the language of
engineers.

Knowledge of Engineering Drawing complements the skills of an Artisan / Trade

person. More importantly, ability to read drawing increases the productivity of a person
besides enhancing confidence to perform task competently.

Recognizing this importance, the core skills (Engineering Drawing) made an integral
part of all Engineering Trades under DGT. The syllabus of Engineering Drawing is common for
first year for all Engineering Trades. The syllabus of 2nd year are made trade group specific.
