| Brief description of the Unit |
Advanced manufacturing provides innovative technologies and processes to improve manufacturing efficiency, productivity, and flexibility. It encompasses a wide range of cutting-edge technologies, including robotics, automation, additive manufacturing, and artificial intelligence. The short course in advanced manufacturing covers the fundamental concepts and techniques involved in modern manufacturing processes. The proposed course mainly covers Digital Manufacturing: This includes the use of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to design and produce products. |

| Unit Content: |
The short course on CAD CAM will cover the following topics: 1. Introduction to CAD CAM: This topic would provide an overview of CAD CAM technology and its applications in advanced manufacturing. 2. CAD Software: The course will introduce participants to various CAD software tools such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD and Fusion 360, and how to create 2D and 3D designs. 3. CAM Software: This module would cover CAM software tools such as Mastercam, Siemens NX CAM, and GibbsCAM. 4. Design for Manufacturing: Participants would learn about the principles of design for manufacturing, including design rules, tolerances, and material selection. 5. Rapid Prototyping: This module would cover rapid prototyping technologies such as 3D printing. 6. Quality Control: Participants would learn about quality control processes, including inspection techniques, measurement systems, and statistical process control. 7. Project Work: The course would include project work that would enable participants to apply CAD CAM concepts and technologies to real-world manufacturing problems. |
| Graduate Attributes: |
| Federation University recognises that students require key transferable employability skills to prepare them for their future workplace and society. FEDTASKS (Transferable Attributes Skills and Knowledge) provide a targeted focus on five key transferable Attributes, Skills, and Knowledge that are be embedded within curriculum, developed gradually towards successful measures and interlinked with cross-discipline and Co-operative Learning opportunities. One or more FEDTASK, transferable Attributes, Skills or Knowledge must be evident in the specified learning outcomes and assessment for each FedUni Unit, and all must be directly assessed in each Course.
