Learning Outcomes
The student will be able to create 3D- models of simple objects and join them together in assemblies. He/she is able to produce dimensioned manufacturing drawings, assembly drawings, exploded assembly drawings, rendered pictures and animations with 3D- modelling software. The student knows the principles of sheet metal part design and is able to create a simple sheet metal part model and unfold it.
