Description
In this course, you will :
- Learn the fundamentals of this technology and describe the applications and uses of additive manufacturing in a manufacturing setting.
- Learn about the economic trade-offs of additive manufacturing, the AM ecosystem partners, and the business context/advantages of additive manufacturing. We'll also go over the risks and challenges associated with this technology.
- Learn about future trends in additive manufacturing and work on a case project for your final grade. Dr. Krishnan will also provide insights from all three courses in the specialisation as the final course in the specialisation, as well as discuss the business and social implications of applying these technologies.
