Introduction to Industrial Additive Manufacturing

Jumpstart your career in engineering through additive manufacturing. This course will give you cutting edge knowledge and skills in the rapidly evolving field of additive manufacturing (also known as 3D printing). 

This course prepares the next generation of engineers and designers to leverage the transformative potential of additive manufacturing technology through practical software training and comprehensive theoretical instruction. You'll learn the fundamental processes and software skills, with hands-on learning of a specific AM software package you can leverage to attain internships or early career positions in the field. 

What You Will Learn: 
  • Build industry awareness, including the 7 families of the Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes
  • Develop skills required for early-stage AM engineering positions
  • Compare and contrast AM processes to traditional manufacturing methods
  • Apply design changes to optimize the design for AM (DfAM); prepare and print AM design files
  • Develop collaborative and professional skillsets required of engineers in the industry
