&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Teaching assistant:&lt;/strong&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This course introduces fused deposition modeling, material jetting, selective laser sintering, directed energy deposition, stereolithography, and digital light processing across a range of materials.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Students review CAD/CAM and design principles for additive manufacturing, then gain hands-on experience with continuous-carbon-fiber printers through the design, fabrication, measurement, and testing of parts.&lt;/p&gt;
