STUDIO


A collaborative and creative environment with state of the art multi-media studio, CAD stations and model shop providing students with a project-based, hands-on learning experience from Ideation to Prototyping. Students will develop industry-driven skills from rapid visualization sketching to model-making, prototype development and technical communication/ drafting. They will learn to use a wide range of software and equipment such as 3D parametric solid modeling and drafting (SolidWorks CAD), CAM software, PhotoShop, Illustrator, 3D printing, laser cutting, manual and CNC machining, vacuum-forming, injection-molding, fiberglass layups, silicone mold-making, sheet metal fabrication, finishing and painting and much more.

Student working on metal lathe

Metal Lathe

Precision machined components are essential. Manual machining is a critical skill for designers and engineers alike.

Prototyping with foam shapes.

Foam Prototype Development

Foam material allows students to experiment with and visualize multiple variations of a product before committing to a final design

Constructing the prototype

Form Studies

Iterative exploration of form to better understand the relationship between form and function.
