Computer Aided Design (CATIA V5)

I taught this undergraduate engineering module in French through lectures and hands-on tutorials using CATIA V5. The course covered fundamental CAD methods for mechanical design, including modelling, detailing, assemblies, and introductory simulation concepts.

Student audience

Graduate engineering students.

Teaching language

English.

Content overview

• Part, surface, and parametric modelling fundamentals
• Technical detailing and drawing standards
• Assembly modelling and best practices
• Introductory simulation and structural analysis concepts

Learning outcomes

• Create robust CAD models and drawings aligned with mechanical engineering standards
• Assemble complex systems and manage design changes effectively
• Understand how CAD models support basic simulation and validation workflows
