OutlineThe intention of CAD is to introduce students to 2D and 3D computer aided design (CAD) with a primary focus on the programs of Autocad, Inventor, and Fusion 360. Students will explore parametric and direct modeling through the completion of drawings and projects. The 3D printer and CNC router will be used for projects that may include an RC car, flat pack furniture, photogrammetry, and universal design challenges.
