Materials Used for Additive Manufacturing

Overview

Google, IBM & Meta Certificates — All 10,000+ Courses at 40% Off

One annual plan covers every course and certificate on Coursera. 40% off for a limited time.

This is primarily aimed at first- and second-year undergraduates interested in engineering or science, along with high school students and professionals with an interest in programming. This course aims to teach the students different types of engineering materials (polymers, metals and ceramics) and biomaterials used for additive manufacturing. Background on each material type, benefits and limitations will be given discussion the best applications for various materials. Additive manufacturing methods for different materials will also be evaluated.
