Description
India annually produces 01 million tech graduates, but many are considered unemployable due to a lack of skills in comparison to their academic knowledge. Integration of design and making skills can solve this problem with tools like Fusion 360, which is freely available to schools. Fusion 360 synergizes design and manufacturing, enabling students to bring their creative ideas to fruition. However, a heavy content-based curriculum in graduation limits this integration.
Established in 2014 at MNIT Jaipur, Autodesk CAM Society is a student-driven club dedicated to teaching and learning manufacturing technology beyond the scope of the curriculum. Their goal is to enhance design & manufacturing skills at an early stage. In one decade, the Society has helped thousands of graduates not only with placement in core companies but also with startups, patent filing, publishing research papers, and winning student competitions. In this session learn more about the tactics and accomplishments to help graduates to enhance their skills and be more employable.
