SOLIDWORKS Training

Course Information

Course Duration: (40 Hours)

Description

This course is designed to help students learn product design using SOLIDWORKS, a popular feature-based 3D parametric solid modelling software. In this course, the students will get in-depth knowledge of all important tools as well as their real world applications in conformity with widely accepted ISO standards, GD&T, 3D Printing, and standard practices followed in manufacturing processes in industry. In addition, students will be assigned a team project of their choice for better understanding of design intent and will also be required to make a portfolio of the work done.
