The purpose of this course is to expose students to SolidWorks, a widely used solid modeling software program. Students will learn how to translate their hand-sketches into three-dimensional CAD models. Lectures and assignments will focus on the development of form as it applies to plastic part design and assembly. Physical models will be realized through ABS rapid prototyping allowing students to experience true plastic part design. Students should anticipate additional costs for supplies and materials.

Enrollment is limited to Sophomore Industrial Design Students.

The purpose of the CAD course is to introduce students to CAD softwares and techniques used in Industrial Design for 3D modeling. Students may select from sections devoted to (a) solid modeling for manufacturing and assembly, using software like Solidworks or Fusion 360, (b) surface modeling and rendering, using Rhino and Grasshopper, and (c) other forms of computer aided design. Specific offerings vary year to year. The CAD requirement is fulfilled by taking a CAD offering within the department or in a comparable course offered outside the department with department approval.

Major Requirement | MID Industrial Design

This course introduces the students to methods, materials, and manufacturing processes that translate design activity into finished goods. A significant portion of downstream design activity is devoted to manufacturing issues - the techniques by which materials are selected, shaped, and then assembled. Students will be evaluated based upon success of weekly field study research assignments and a final exam.

Enrollment is limited to Junior Industrial Design Students.
