3D Printing for Engineering Projects
Students learn 3D printing fundamentals from the ground up — from CAD design to watching their creations come to life on the printer. No prior experience needed.
What students learn
From screen to real object in 4 weeks.
CAD design basics
Students learn to create 3D models using beginner-friendly CAD software, understanding dimensions, shapes, and how digital designs become physical objects.
3D printing fundamentals
How 3D printers work, material selection, print settings, and troubleshooting. Students operate the printer themselves.
Engineering projects
Each week builds toward a hands-on project — students design, print, test, and improve their creations through real iteration.
