This experience focuses on the practical application of computer-aided design (CAD) principles in engineering contexts. Learners will develop skills in technical sketching, geometric construction, and parametric modeling using industry-standard CAD platforms like Autodesk Fusion 360 and Inventor. By integrating simulation workflows and sustainable design practices, learners can apply their knowledge to real-world projects, delivering professional-quality engineering drawings and digital design packages that align with industry standards. This experience is designed to attract projects that can be completed efficiently, providing tangible benefits to participating companies through innovative design solutions.

Deliverables are negotiable and will seek to align the needs of the learners and the organization. 

Some final project deliverables might include: 

• Professional-quality engineering drawings adhering to ASME, ISO, and CSA standards
• Optimized 3D models and assemblies with complete technical documentation
• Simulation reports using Abaqus for finite element analysis
• Rendered models and technical illustrations for design communication
• Structured project management documentation, including version control and collaborative workflows
