The article presents the problems of teaching disciplines of computer graphics-oriented curricula as per the federal state educational standard of the Russian Federation and designed for civil engineering students. Questions about the mass transition of the educational process in civil engineering education on information technology are relevant in the modern world. The reform of the educational process is carried out by introducing into the curricula new disciplines related to the use of information technology. To date, the base of the graphics discipline curricula do not fully provide the study sections of computer graphics. The article deals with the introduction of a variable part of curricula teaching computer graphics as a discipline, the study of which will enable students to grow into professionals able to operate successfully in the modern world. An example of implementation of the learning process as a basic graphics software graphic editor AutoCAD, which has long been present in all industries, including construction engineering. In organising and conducting training sessions with the use of AutoCAD program students have the opportunity to solve the problem of computer-aided design to give the design documents. For a better understanding of software for the discipline there is a course on design project. Academic term papers at the same time already have a practical orientation with the possibility of further use in industrial applications. However, there is the fact that when the system of education in the new stages of development, the teaching of computer-graphic disciplines in the basic component is not paid to the need for a more complete study of their study time. The article presents some suggestions in terms of the transition to a new qualitative level of teaching disciplines of computer-graphic orientation..
