Course details

More about this course
  • There are opportunities throughout the design process of any product to make significant changes, and ultimately impact the future of manufacturing, by embracing the digital thread. In this course, you will dig into the transformation taking place in how products are designed and manufactured throughout the world. It is the second of two courses that focuses on the "digital thread" ? the stream that starts at the creation of a product concept and continues to accumulate information and data throughout the product life cycle.
  • Hear about the realities of implementing the digital thread, directly from someone responsible for making it happen at a company. Learn how the digital thread can fit into product development processes in an office, on a shop floor, and even across an enterprise. Be prepared to talk about the benefits, and limitations, of enacting it.
  • Main concepts of this course will be delivered through lectures, readings, discussions and various videos.
  • This is the third course in the Digital Manufacturing & Design Technology specialization that explores the many facets of manufacturing?s ?Fourth Revolution,? aka Industry 4.0, and features a culminating project involving creation of a roadmap to achieve a self-established DMD-related professional goal.
