Take your digital design skills to the next level
If you have experience in introductory 3D modelling and are ready to develop more advanced skills, this course will help you turn your ideas into detailed designs and functional prototypes.
Using Autodesk Fusion, you’ll learn to create complex 3D models and prepare your designs for production using technologies such as 3D printing, laser cutting and CNC machining. Through hands-on, project-based learning, you’ll develop your skills in precision modelling, material selection, design for manufacture and prototyping workflows, while learning to test, evaluate and refine your designs.
You’ll gain practical experience using industry-relevant technologies and fabrication equipment, supported by experienced lecturers. Whether you’re interested in product design, engineering, manufacturing, architecture or emerging technologies, you’ll build on your existing knowledge and develop skills to support further study and future career opportunities in design and digital fabrication.
If you’re ready to explore new possibilities, solve design challenges and bring your ideas to life, this course will help you take the next step in your 3D modelling journey.
