The authors have considered the process of students’ training with the use of contemporary IT technologies and CAD systems within the course of Descriptive Geometry and Engineering Graphics. The article presents the methods of conducting the classes in an integrated course which simultaneously involves both traditional methods of making the drawings according to the federal standards (GOST) of the unified design documentation system (ESKD) as well as instrumental means and methods of three-dimensional modeling and executing of design documents with the use of CAD system. The issue of difficulties in shifting from work with a pencil to modern CAD systems among students has been considered especially concerning the students’ mastering of the interrelated scientific notions in engineering and computer graphics at the level sufficient enough to make and read drawings as well as design digital models and construction documentation of products within all the educational stages.
