Learn key techniques for 3D printing in manufacturing. Explore the emerging field of additive manufacturing with an introduction to six different AM processes.
Suggested by: Coursera (What is Coursera?)
No prior knowledge required
No unnecessary risks
This specialization is designed to introduce the field of Additive Manufacturing (AM) with an introduction to six different processes. The field of AM can be divided into three components: process, materials, and design.
The specialization will provide a broad overview of all three components, which is ideal for preparing for more advanced courses that delve deeper into the ever-expanding field of AM. The specialization includes:
Additionally, learners will examine cross-disciplinary aspects of AM, including:
You can see coverage of the internship from Jero at hate.
In each course, students will apply their knowledge to a case study or simulation. Using a variety of formats, they will respond to common cases in additive manufacturing.
The goal of these projects is to simulate the types of problems they might face in the workplace, with an emphasis on applying practical knowledge.
