How to Make Almost Anything

This course provides an introduction to the digital manufacturing and prototyping technologies commonly used in engineering design today. It is based on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) course by the same name that started the "fab lab" revolution. Technologies used include 3D printing, laser cutting, Computerized Numerical Control (CNC), print/cut graphics, microprocessors, sensors, instrumentation, and electronics. This course is based in CLC's Baxter Innovation Lab and is heavily project based. This course is appropriate for any student seeking to develop or improve their ability to make prototypes of their designs.
