Objective

To train students in spatial modeling, creation, acquisition, improvement of spatial anatomical models, as well as preparation for 3D printing. To introduce students to various spatial modeling options and software, to give students the opportunity to create digital spatial models of various complexity and print them.
It is expected that the students who have completed the study course will be able to independently develop and prepare spatial models for 3D printing, using data from radiology examinations, and will be able to apply the acquired knowledge in their professional activities.

Prerequisites

Knowledge of informatics at the level of the secondary school program. It is preferable to take the study course FK_069 "IT basics" in advance.

Learning outcomes

Knowledge

To provide students with insight and practical knowledge in 3D scanning and modeling, which students could potentially encounter in the future in their professional environment, thereby increasing their competitiveness.

Skills

As a result of the study course, students will be able to use the acquired knowledge of 3D scanning and modeling in order to be able to work practically with various 3D modeling programs, as well as to be able to apply these technologies in practice. It is expected that the students who have completed the study course will be able to independently develop and prepare spatial models for printing, using data from radiology examinations, and will be able to apply the acquired knowledge in their professional activities.

Competence

As a result of learning the study course, students will be able to use the available 3D scanning and modeling technologies, will be able to assess the current situation in the field of 3D technologies, predict its development directions.
