A Student’s Journey in CAD and 3D Modeling

  • Summary

  • There is a significant discrepancy between how academia prepares students and what the industry expects them to do when they graduate. To close that gap, new design and manufacturing techniques must be introduced to students as early as possible. Academia should also strive to ensure students are being taught how to use the tools currently used by prospective employers. I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Leah Griesmer, a third-year mechanical engineering student at the University of Cincinnati. Leah has an interest in additive manufacturing and 3D modeling and plans to get into product design after graduation. In this episode, you will learn about the benefits of learning CAD software, specifically NX before entering the workforce. You will also get to hear about Leah’s positive experience with NX highlighting its user-friendly interface, CAE capabilities, and seamless integration with other CAD software. Additionally, you will find Leah's insights as she provides valuable perspectives for aspiring designers and highlights the exciting possibilities in the world of product design.
