About additive manufacturing course offered by IIT Madras

As per the CODE release. additive manufacturing is popularized as a field that offers an enticing avenue for crafting a variety of engineering and biomedical components. The course has huge potential to shape the manufacturing process for low volume production of complex body implants with specific custom-made designs.

The course will cover pre and post-processing methodologies, fundamentals, design strategies for additive manufacturing, operational principles processes and more in six modules.

The learning objectives of the course are to teach the process chain of AM technologies through hands-on training, the use of AM technologies in different engineering industries, understanding the impact of AM technologies in product design and development and more.

The course material consists of 24 hours of interactive online sessions with faculty and 72 hours of recorded videos. After the completion of the course, learners will be awarded a certificate of completion by IIT Madras.

Dr Murugaiyan Amirthalingam, Associate Professor, Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, IIT Madras, said: “This course is aimed at the practising engineers and middle level managers who have not undergone classroom teaching on additive manufacturing. This course is aimed to provide both fundamentals and applied knowledge of additive manufacturing technologies. Those who want to implement various AM technologies in their workplace, can get benefited from this course.”
