EUT 282E - Computer Aided 3D Modeling

Course Objectives

Using advanced modeling techniques students will be able to create forms that are producible. Contemporary visualization tools will be used for creating realistic images. Students will gain the ability to create alternatives during the process of design and improve various properties of the product such as form, color, texture, material and ergonomics.
