This specialization, offered by Arizona State University, explores the use of 3D printing to accelerate prototyping in engineering and product design. It starts by providing insights into the core processes in engineering and product design & development, emphasizing the importance of prototyping. Learners will gain an understanding of different types and characteristics of prototypes, and the various methods of producing prototypes. The course then delves into an extensive range of 3D printing technologies, allowing learners to develop the skill to select the optimal 3D printing tools for a given type of prototype.
Throughout the course, students will analyze how engineering and product design processes are carried out, distinguish the steps in both design processes, and investigate the working principles, applications, and limitations of various 3D printing technologies.
