3D Printing

This course is designed to introduce students to materials science through the construction of a 3D printer and the exploration of items ultimately developed using the printer. In addition to building the 3D printer, students will complete a variety of projects using different materials and comparing their properties. This course will focus on building skills with an emphasis on creativity and critical thinking.

Per 5-week session.

Materials include construction components for the 3D printer and materials required for project work. No additional materials are required for Session 2 after attending Session 1 (i.e., the total materials cost for both sessions is $600).
