Why this course

Think Beyond Drawings. Design Products That Work.

Product design is more than creating drawings or 3D models. It is about understanding how a product should function, move, perform and be manufactured. The Executive Diploma in Product Design takes you through this journey—from engineering drawing, GD&T and production drawings to material selection, AutoCAD, 3D modelling and virtual prototyping.

Through hands-on learning, you’ll explore assemblies, sheet metal, surface modelling, generative design and mechanism simulation. Practical projects such as wheel rim, universal joint and plunger mechanism design help you apply your learning to real-world engineering challenges.

By the end of the programme, you’ll develop the confidence to interpret, design, model, analyse and document engineering products—building practical skills that can support your journey into product design and engineering roles.

What you'll learn

6 modules, structured around a real product.

Each module builds on the last — by Module 5 you're simulating the motion of a working mechanism, not completing isolated drawing exercises.

  1. 01

    Engineering Drawing Fundamentals

    Build a strong foundation in reading and creating engineering drawings. Understand views, projections and the language used to communicate engineering designs.

    Topics covered

    Engineering drawing basicsTypes of viewsFirst & third angle projectionsDrawing interpretation

    Practical outcome

    Read, interpret and create engineering drawings with the correct views, projections and drawing conventions used in industry.

  2. 02

    Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T)

    Learn how engineers communicate accuracy and manufacturing requirements through dimensions, tolerances and standard GD&T symbols.

    Topics covered

    GD&T fundamentalsDimensional tolerancesGD&T symbolsFeature specifications

    Practical outcome

    Apply dimensions, tolerances and GD&T symbols to communicate precise manufacturing requirements clearly.

  3. 03

    Production Drawing

    Learn how to convert design information into detailed production drawings that clearly communicate what needs to be manufactured.

    Topics covered

    Part identificationEngineering symbolsDrawing representationsMaterial specificationsBill of Materials (BOM)

    Practical outcome

    Prepare detailed production drawings with part information, material specifications, standard symbols and BOM requirements.

  4. 04

    Material Engineering

    Understand commonly used engineering materials and learn how their properties influence product design and material selection.

    Topics covered

    Material classificationMaterial propertiesMaterial selectionEngineering applicationsSelection guidelines

    Practical outcome

    Understand material properties and make informed material choices based on product requirements and engineering applications.

  5. 05

    Engineering Drawing Using AutoCAD

    Learn to create and manage professional engineering drawings using AutoCAD, from basic profiles to layouts, printing and data exchange.

    Topics covered

    Basic profilesLayer managementBlocks & referencesLayouts & printingCollaboration & data exchange3D modellingAutoLISP

    Practical outcome

    Create, edit and manage professional 2D engineering drawings and basic 3D models using AutoCAD.

  6. 06

    3D Modelling – Virtual Prototype Design

    Turn engineering concepts into detailed virtual prototypes. Work with parts, assemblies and different modelling approaches used in product development.

    Topics covered

    Creating profilesSolid modellingAssembly designSheet metal modellingSurface modelling

    Practical outcome

    Create detailed parts, assemblies, sheet-metal models and virtual prototypes that can be developed towards real-world manufacturing.
