Digital Design and Fabrication, Certificate

(Suggested Occupational Plan)

Digital Design and Fabrication is a new Del Mar College program. This fast-growing industry marries design with the Construction/Manufacturing/Production industries through the use of 3D modeling Computer-Aided Design or Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software with various manufacturing processes. This new field that has been sprouting under the Architectural realm integrates computer-assisted design with computer milling and fabrication. These tools allow for product design and testing under highly accurate environments in addition to growing the imaginarium that is the creative design processes. This field links the building industries with the millwrighting, machining and manufacturing industries through their similar natue of design and making
