Minor / Specialization in Digital Fabrication 2023 Due to the pandemic we are not offering our Minor in-person. We are adjusting the curriculum, and we are happy to There are many different digital fabrication techniques, but the essential characteristic that unifies them is that digital machines can be programmed to make consistent products from data driven designs. At our RhinoFabStudio you will be able to use the latest inventive technologies such as 3D printing, computer controlled CNC milling and routing, and laser cutting to produce three-dimensional work. You will be able to obtain an appreciation of how digital fabrication can be an operator of your creative ideas, developed through generative 3-D modeling to your final fabricated product. |
The Minor / Specialization in Digital Fabrication is intended for students and teachers with creative backgrounds: designers, architects, artists, engineers, and other professionals of associated fields. The Digital Fabrication Program involves introductory as well as advanced courses in 3-D digital modeling with Rhino 3D, generative and data driven modeling with Grasshopper, physical computation and interaction, as well as hands on manual fabrication. An assignment process is developed where students and teachers get matched together to promote growth. Teachers acquire skills that students want and at the same time, students develop critical thinking, discipline and self-confidence to develop their portfolios. ![]() |

By completing this program, the participant will earn either a Minor (students) or a Specialization (teachers) in Digital Fabrication. The participants can also apply to become a certified ART (Authorized Rhino Trainer http://www.rhino3d.com/art) since the course includes the Rhino Level 1 and 2 trainings and certification exams. In addition, attendees will cover the initial requirements to open and operate a RhinoFabStudio (http://www.rhino3d.com/arfl). Each section of the program will include exercises to enable participants to develop projects within their own specialty or crossing boundaries between several fields. The highlight is based on the progress of individual strategies to understand, consolidate and manipulate two-and-three dimensional forms. |
Notes: - If you are a student and want to take our Minor as credits for your internship for your school, you will need to get an approval from your school first, and send it to us. - If you are a teacher and want to take our Specialization as credits of your continuing professional education for your school, you will need to get an approval from your school first, and send it to us. RhinoFabStudio: All our equipment is on site for our students to use during this period. They should be able to handle and operate each of the digital machines, as well as to know all the safety around them. ![]() Watch: You can view some of the projects made by our students during this program at: RhinoFabStudio’s TV Channel CURRICULUM: The Progam complements the attendee’s major field of study within their design discipline.
