Introduction to 3D Printing equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary to print their own or ready-made 3D models on an FDM 3D printer. Students are introduced to the benefits of 3D printing, and the role that the Internet plays by allowing 3D models to be shared and printed around the world. Students learn how to operate typical 3D printing software. The course covers the most important printing considerations, including layer thickness, orientation, support, and in-fill. Students are also exposed to common design tools, enabling them to create and print their own models.

The Plastics Technology (Thermoforming) provides students with virtual hands-on experience combining various materials and processes to manufacture plastic parts. In this module students gain practical experience in six different plastic forming processes: Vacuum Forming, Free Dome Blowing, Plastic Welding, Plastic Dip Coating, Injection Molding and Extrusion.
Students learn how low tooling costs, short tooling lead times and great versatility make plastic thermoforming suitable for a variety of applications, such as handling trays and bins, cases and storage units, packaging and electronics housings and display panels.
