CAD Design

LEVEL: BEGINNER-INTERMEDIATE (AGES 12–17)

CAD Design

Design the Future Using Digital Technology

Welcome to the CAD Design Bootcamp, where learners discover how engineers and designers bring ideas to life using digital tools.

Students will learn how to create 2D drawings and 3D models using industry-standard design principles. From product design to architectural concepts, learners will gain real-world design experience.

This bootcamp develops spatial awareness, creativity, and technical design skills aligned with modern engineering industries.

COURSE OVERVIEW

The CAD Design Bootcamp introduces learners to the world of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) — the foundation of modern engineering, architecture, and product design. Learners will develop skills in technical drawing, precision design, and digital modeling, preparing them for real-world design careers.
By the end of the course, learners will understand CAD fundamentals, create 2D technical drawings, develop basic 3D models, apply design principles, and present a complete CAD project.
