Catalog description

3D or Additive Manufacturing is quickly taking over the more traditional ways of making things through subtractive manufacturing methods. 3D printing is making more and more of the proto types, parts, and products we use everyday in a quicker, more responsible way. This course will explore how 3D printing started, generative design, how to 3D print, and how is it currently being used in industry. Students in this class will utilize 3D printers, scanners, and laser cutters to gain hands on experience in the world of 3D manufacturing and tour local 3D companies to see real life manufacturing in progress.
