This course is also offered in a live virtual format, meeting simultaneously with the on-campus cohort.
Fuel your organization’s ability to produce large volumes of highly integrated, complex, customized products by leveraging intelligent design and manufacturing strategies powered by the latest in artificial intelligence. In this highly interactive course, you’ll join a group of accomplished global peers to explore the latest smart manufacturing strategies and hardware, acquire skills to develop machine learning-based design templates, and participate in generative design sessions.
This course may be taken individually or as part of the Professional Certificate Program in Design & Manufacturing or the Professional Certificate Program in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence.
Over the next few decades, industries around the world will transition to a new economy in which highly complex, customizable products will be manufactured on-demand using intelligent manufacturing systems. In a number of fields, this change is already underway—for example, additive manufacturing is revolutionizing the production of consumer, aerospace, automotive, and medical parts. To stay ahead, professionals need a thorough understanding of the AI-powered strategies and tools that are enabling these rapid advancements—and a plan for implementing them in their own organizations.
This course provides an introduction to developing end-to-end AI-based design and manufacturing workflows. Over the course of five days, you will explore how AI methods are advancing digital manufacturing and the entire design ecosystem. In this course, you will also:
- Learn how AI methods can be used in a manufacturing workflow for process optimization and control
- Discover AI/machine learning methods that enable design automation and customization
- Explore AI/machine learning methods for performance-driven design that automatically translate functional specifications of objects to manufacturable designs
