Descripción
University College London (UCL) Mechanical Engineering faces the challenge of teaching 200+ new students each year—95% of whom have never used a CAD package before. By using both Autodesk learning content and self-paced learning for Autodesk Fusion software, a student's educational journey can be tailored to their individual experience levels. Working with Autodesk Academic Partners, such as Fabrio, the educational feedback loop can be scaled by developing interactive courses that integrate learning, feedback, and live assessment. This case study will detail UCL's unique experience of training the next generation of engineers: from complete beginners to national design prize winners. At its core, Autodesk Fusion software acts as a catalyst to inspire students to teach themselves and each other, outpacing traditional classroom-based learning. Join us to explore the best tools to teach CAD in 2024.

- TPTom PeachTom is an Associate Professor working in the field of biomechanics and design at University College London. He teaches undergraduate and graduate students with a focus on design, medical devices and both fluid- and solid-biomechanics. He also supervises research and design projects in these areas. Tom is Director of UCL MechSpace—a teaching workshop in Kings Cross where his team host practical teaching and industry collaborations in the Department. MechSpace is also home to a group of over 100 students, known as UCL Racing (UCLR), who design, build, and compete with cars, planes, rovers, drones, submarines, and rockets. More info on MechSpace is here: http://ucl-mech.space/racing Tom's research interests lie in medical device development, and in particular the design of minimally invasive treatments for aneurysms and other diseases of the cardiovascular system. In addition to working with colleagues in the UK, he has collaborations in the USA, Canada, Germany, South Africa, and China. Tom's other research interests include low-cost and user-centred design, self-deploying structures, flow stability, and both in-vitro and in-vivo models. At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic Tom was part of the engineering team that developed the UCL-Ventura CPAP breathing aid with University College Hospital and Mercedes-AMG HPP. This project won the RAEng President's Special Award for Pandemic Service. More info on the device is here: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/covid19cpap
