About This Program

This Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) course covers the fundamental principles and applications of GD&T in engineering and manufacturing. Students will explore key concepts such as symbols, terms, limits of size, and the geometric system, with a focus on the Datum Reference Frame (DRF) and its relationship to design and measurement. Topics include orientation tolerances, virtual condition, material boundary modifiers, form and profile tolerances, position tolerances, and coaxial controls. Through a structured approach, this course provides the foundational knowledge needed to accurately interpret and apply GD&T in real-world scenarios.
