In Production Engineering students will get hands-on experience turning ideas into real-world objects. This course bridges the gap between digital design and physical production. You'll learn tow ork from blueprints, sketches, and your own imagination using Audodesk Fusion, a leading software for CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing). There is a high demand for skilled technicians and designers who understand both digital design and hands-on manufacturing. This program gives you a powerful advantage in the job market. By learning to operate a full range of modern production equipment, you'll build an impressive portfolio and develop the high-tech, employable skills needed for a successful career in engineering, design, or advanced manufacturing.
Production Engineering is a 2 year program that rising 10th-12th grade students can apply for. Students will master the entire workflow: designing 3D model on the computer, preparing it for manufacturing, and then bringing it to life with state-of-the-art equipment. Your projects will involve a mix of modern and traditional techniques including :
3D printing- Building parts layer-by-layer (additive manufacturing)
Laser Cutting/Engraving- Precisely cutting or etching designs into material
CNC Machining- Using computer-controlled mills and lathes to shape metal and plastic
Traditional Tools- Using drill presses, mills, lathes, and precision measuring instruments for foundational machining skills
There will be a class fee that all students will have to pay.
