MT 3611 - Solid Modeling

3 lecture hours 2 lab hours 4 credits
Course Description
In this course, the use of solid modeling in engineering design will be explored. Students will learn to create part models, assemblies, and drawings using SolidWorks solid modeling software. Motion analysis will also be introduced. Integration of solid modeling into the product design process will be emphasized. (prereq: None) 
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
  • Model 3-D parts with SolidWorks software
  • Assemble part models into assembly models
  • Create 2-D drawings of parts and assemblies
  • Simulate simple mechanisms
  • Model manufacturing processes (sheet metal and molds)
