Who this course is for

Built for diploma/degree engineering students, ITI candidates and working professionals who want dedicated, in-depth training on SolidWorks for product design — no prior 3D CAD experience required.

By the end you'll build accurate parametric 3D parts, design multi-part assemblies with proper mates, run basic motion studies and stress simulations, and produce a complete, presentation-ready product design package the way a design office expects.

  • Diploma / B.Tech mechanical, automobile or production engineering students
  • ITI (Draftsman Mechanical, Fitter, Machinist) candidates
  • Working professionals moving into product design roles
  • No prior 3D CAD experience required

4How each module is taught

Every module follows the same practical, real-part lens, so you always know what to expect in class.

1

Concept Walkthrough

Trainer explains the concept with a real product or component first, then the feature or workflow, using a realistic design.

2

Live Along

You build the same part, assembly or study step by step, right alongside the trainer.

3

Hands-on Exercise

An independent task applying the concept to a new part or design problem.

4

Doubt Clearing

One-on-one help for anyone stuck, before the class moves to the next module.

5

Weekly Assessment

A short practical SolidWorks test every week so gaps are caught early, not at the end.

5Projects & portfolio

Four practical, portfolio-ready design projects across the full syllabus — the kind of work you'll show in interviews.

  • Project 1. Fully modelled mechanical part with parametric, feature-driven geometry
  • Project 2. Multi-part assembly built with proper mates and organised sub-assemblies
  • Project 3. Motion study and basic stress analysis on a working assembly or part
  • Project 4. Capstone: complete product design package — part, assembly, simulation report and drawing set

6Assessment & certification

Weekly practical assessments covering part modelling, assemblies and simulation, with instructor review and feedback.

Final practical exam across all three phases, plus the capstone project used as your demonstrable, portfolio-ready proof of skill.

Certificate of completion, plus resume and design portfolio support through our 100% Placement Assist program.

7Quick answers

Do I need any prior CAD or engineering background?

No. Basic familiarity with mechanical shapes helps but isn't required — every concept, from sketching to simulation, is taught from the ground up.

Do I need my own laptop with SolidWorks installed?

A laptop meeting SolidWorks' hardware requirements is strongly recommended for daily practice, but institute computers with SolidWorks are also available in class.

Will I actually design real products, or is it mostly theory?

You'll design real parts and assemblies from week one. Every module includes hands-on practice on realistic components, ending in a full product-design capstone.

How deep does the simulation module go?

This course covers motion studies and basic static stress simulation for design validation. Advanced FEA and CFD are covered in our specialised simulation tracks.

Are classes online, offline, or both?

Both. Offline batches run at our Alpha-1, Greater Noida campus; online live batches follow the same curriculum with the same trainers. Morning, evening and weekend timings are available.

What can I do after completing this course?

You'll be ready for design engineer, product design trainee and CAD engineer roles, with a design portfolio of real projects, and can progress into advanced simulation or CAM tracks with the same placement support.
