Beyond screen time — into skill-building technology.

A progressive, project-based course that introduces students to the same professional 3D design platform used by mechanical engineers, product designers, architects, and inventors.

01

Professional software

Students work in Autodesk Fusion — a real, cloud-connected CAD/CAM platform combining 3D design, simulation, electronics, and manufacturing in one tool.

02

Project-based progression

From first sketches to a final portfolio piece. Students design keychains, phone stands, brackets, mechanical parts — useful objects, not abstract exercises.

03

Career pathway exposure

Early exposure to mechanical engineering, product design, robotics, architecture, manufacturing, 3D printing, aerospace, and entrepreneurship.

Six modules. Sketch to portfolio.

A clear arc from first click to finished portfolio. Each module builds on the last; the final module is a self-directed product concept.

  1. M.01

    Getting Started

    Account setup, interface navigation, saving projects, and the basic tools that everything else builds on.

    Foundation
  2. M.02

    Sketching Foundations

    Lines, circles, dimensions, constraints, symmetry. Learning to draw with engineering accuracy — the basis of every 3D model.

    Foundation
  3. M.03

    From 2D to 3D

    Extrude, cut, fillet, chamfer, shell. Turning flat sketches into solid 3D objects ready for the real world.

    Core
  4. M.04

    Real-World Design Projects

    Design useful objects — keychains, phone stands, containers, brackets, simple mechanical parts. Concepts applied to things students can hold.

    Applied
  5. M.05

    Assemblies & Product Thinking

    How parts fit together. Movement, tolerances, revisions. Designing not just one piece, but how pieces work as a system.

    Applied
  6. M.06

    Portfolio Project

    Students design a final product concept and present their work — documented and ready for college, technical school, or career applications.

    Capstone
§ 03 · Career Pathways

Real software opens real career doors.

Fusion is used in real product development — combining CAD, CAM, CAE, electronics, and data management in one platform. Early exposure means a head start in mechanical engineering, product & industrial design, robotics, architecture, manufacturing & CNC, 3D printing, aerospace & automotive, and entrepreneurship.
