Computer Aided Design (CAD) describes a broad spectrum of tools utilised in 3D and 2D software to create models. In this program students will utilise Fusion360 as an introduction to 3D modelling. By the end of the program students will have generated photo quality 3D renders of models produced in Fusion360 and be able to apply these skills back at school. This program is developed in partnership with Objective3D.
Program objectives:
- Understand what CAD is and what it can be used for in the real world
- Develop basic skills in Fusion360 in order to produce a personalised item to be viewed as a 3D object
