To achieve it, projection method education, machine design/drawing education and three-dimensional CAD education are related comprehensively. An effect of current design and drawing curriculum in Three Departments of Mechanical Engineering, The University of Tokyo has been evaluated. Feature type and construction order of student's three-dimensional model has been classified so that the type and order is a suitable way as design intent. The relationship between evaluated score of student's two-dimensional drafting and classified feature type was also evaluated; however there were no relationship between them. From viewpoint of improvement of the educational effect, the education with new curriculum has reconstructed. The education by a new curriculum will be begun at the latter term of fiscal year 2005.
