What's the point of teaching Engineering Drawing to first year CSE students (RGPV)?

Teaching Engineering Drawing to first year CSE students tends to give them a basic understanding of design, different views(top, front, side, sectional), Projection(1st or 3rd), standards & formats.

ED may be useful in the following cases:

• Designing/drawing computer components and games

• Developing new software for mech & civil.

Srinivasa Ramanujan (Indian Mathematician) passed Mathematics but failed in languages because of a lack of interest in languages. This means that if you have decided to go in a specific field, you will have to study all subjects in order to pass the exams in college.

Similarly in CSE, you will find courses of not much value once you start working somewhere.

The higher you will climb the ladder of studies, the clearer you will become in which field to choose.

So CSE will be helpful if you switch to CAD or CAM in future. In addition, it helps to develop perception of objects.
