Skill explained

Prototype Modelling engineers are developers or producers of 2D and 3D new product models. When a new industrial product is developed, a product is designed based on a concept and a prototype model is created, and the shape of the new product is next determined after thorough review and modification.

Required skills

numeracy, critical thinking, Mathematics, Computer Science, Analytical Skills, Creativity, read and interpret technical drawings
