Industrial Design Undergraduate Program

This course covers the fundamental topics that will serve as a foundation for computer-aided design (CAD) and manufacturing model applications necessary for the industrial design discipline. The main focus of the course is to express, analyze, and prepare design ideas for production in a three-dimensional computer environment. The course includes the basic operation of 3D solid modeling programs, parametric and computational design, their contribution to physical production, and electronic prototyping.

Upon successful completion of this course, students are expected to:
• Have a solid understanding of the general concepts of computer-aided design and manufacturing,
• Be able to prepare designs and production processes using SolidWorks and Rhinoceros,
• Develop design projects using parametric design tools such as Grasshopper,
• Produce these designs and develop their electronic components.

1. By the end of the course, it is expected that the student will have a good understanding of the general concepts of computer-aided design and manufacturing, be able to prepare designs for production using SolidWorks and Rhinoceros, create designs with parametric design tools such as Grasshopper, produce these designs, and develop their electronic components.
