Course description

Ever wondered how products are designed?

Find out for yourself through this introductory course where you will be introduced to the fundamentals of Computer-Aided Design (CAD). To facilitate your learning experience, there will be hands-on sessions on basic, common, and practical CAD skills in this course.

Participants will get the chance to familiarise themselves with the Autodesk Fusion CAD software, as they learn about visualisation of three-dimensional (3D) models and explore related product design functions. They will also acquire the basic skills needed to create 3D models of their own designs.

Bring home an acrylic light and a laser cut and engraved acrylic sheet of your design. Also, take home a 3D print of your very own design - turn your creativity into tangible masterpieces!

Target audiences

Hobbyists, 3D printing enthusiasts, and individuals who wish to learn more about design, product design, and CAD.
