Reverse Engineering Syllabus

This course aims to provide students with hands-on training in reverse engineering and rapid prototyping technologies to quickly design and implement products. The course combines lectures on these topics with practical experience using various rapid prototyping systems like stereolithography, selective laser sintering, fused deposition modeling, and multi-jet modeling. Students will learn CAD design, STL file generation and repair, tool path planning, and software for rapid prototyping. The course also covers applications of reverse engineering and integrating it with rapid prototyping.
