Course details

More about this course
  • This course introduces you to one of the more common applications of generative design: Additive Manufacturing or 3D printing as it?s also known. In this course, we explore the basics of geometry creation and the mindset shift needed to build a generative design?a deeper understanding of generative design, its parameters, and how to work with the results specifically aimed at making a 3D printed metal part. We develop insightful understanding of the generative workflow by exploring Autodesk® Fusion 360? tools and combining them with the creative process of taking an idea to a 3D model. We'll learn how to focus on where a design is and isn?t and apply the generative design thinking process to define a study as we take a deeper dive into Fusion 360.
  • You?ll need a paid subscription to Fusion 360 to complete the assignments in this course. Be sure to review your access or payment options before enrolling: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360
  • Want to take your learning to the next level? Complete the Autodesk Generative Design for Manufacturing Specialization, and you?ll unlock an additional Autodesk Credential as further recognition of your success! The Autodesk Credential comes with a digital badge and certificate, which you can add to your resume and share on social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. Sharing your Autodesk Credential can signal to hiring managers that you?ve got the right skills for the job and you?re up on the latest industry trends like generative design.
