Fusion 360 Essentials

In this course, a student will get started with product design in Autodesk Fusion 360. During the course, the student will learn how to sculpt his idea, then move to parts and assembly modeling, and, as a final step, create drawings and renderings, and prepare for manufacturing on CNC machine or 3D printer.

Fusion 360 is a cloud-based CAD/CAM tool for collaborative product development. Fusion 360 enables exploration and iteration on product ideas and collaboration within distributed product development team. Most importantly, Autodesk Fusion 360 combines organic shapes modeling, mechanical design, and manufacturing in one comprehensive package.

After completion of the course, the student will be able to design his own product from idea to prototype.
