Learning Objectives of Year-Round Tri-Level Course Program
Our innovative STEM education provides students the opportunity to take their ideas and turn them into three-dimensional objects by using state-of-the-art 3D CAD software (design), as well as 3D printers (reality), and electronic circuits & coding.
- Create 3D models with state-of-the-art 3D CAD software, Creo Parametric
- Create technical orthographic views with hand-drawn drafting skills
- Create orthographic views with accurate dimensions
- Learn about projected, visible, hidden, and center lines
- Apply industry standards with engineering design methodology
- Measure physical objects with digital calipers
- Simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate the 3D models with 3D space mouse
- Re-construct physical parts to digital models
- Build assemblies of 3D CAD parts and check for interference with section views
- Slice the CAD models and orient the objects for best 3D print results
- Analyze the mass properties and centers of gravity
- Build electronic circuits with microcontroller boards
- Learn how to code the circuits using C programming language
- Simulate to see how electronics will respond in real life
- Apply critical thinking, problem solving, and spatial-visualization skills
