This course should provide the student with the following skills;
- Knowledge about different ways of geometrical representation
- The ability to independently use a solid modelling software
- The ability to create parts and assemblies
- The ability to use neutral file formats
- The ability to independently create drawings from solid models
- The ability to conduct projects/assignments and present CAD models

To give the student a basic CAD knowledge that can be used within the field of product
development. The course gives an introduction to technical terms and methodology related to solid
modelling. The main focus in the course is to offer practical training in solid modelling with
SolidWorks or Pro/ENGINEER (or an equivalent software).
