About the Workshop

Build Skills. Create Real-World Designs.

This workshop introduces participants to practical CAD and PCB design workflows using SOLIDWORKS and ALTIUM. The focus is on understanding the tools, following real design processes and applying the concepts through hands-on activities.

Open to students interested in Mechanical Design, Electronics, ECE, EEE, Mechatronics and related fields.

Beginner Friendly

No advanced prior experience required. We start from the fundamentals and build up.

Hands-On Learning

Learn by actually creating designs — not just watching slides.

Practical Engineering Workflows

Understand practical engineering workflows used in real design work.

The Tools

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No advanced prior experience is required. The workshop is beginner friendly and starts from the fundamentals, building up to hands-on design work over the two days.

We recommend bringing a laptop so you can follow along with the hands-on sessions. Setup and software guidance will be provided at the start of each day.

On Day 1 you will model 3D parts, create assemblies and engineering drawings in SOLIDWORKS. On Day 2 you will design a schematic and lay out a PCB in ALTIUM, finishing with a practical mini project.

Yes. While mechanical and electronics students will find it especially relevant, the workflows are useful for anyone interested in product design, CAD or electronics.

Participants who attend both days and complete the hands-on activities will receive a workshop participation certificate.

The workshop runs on 26–27 September from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at SRM Campus, including a break for lunch each day.
