Summer School 3D Design & Fabrication

UCL, 10-14th June 2013

APPLICATION DEADLINE: 22nd May 2013

Funding available for fees and accommodation.

Please send email to Dr Jamie O'Brien ucftjro@ucl.ac.uk with your latest CV (2 page), a short description of why you would like to participate in the summer school, and a listing of your relevant programming experience. The subject line must be 3D Summer School.

Advances in digital design and fabrication is rapidly changing the landscape for digital design-to-fabrication, both for professional and for amateurs. This summer school intends to provide both an exposure to latest algorithms and methods in digital design and fabrication, and also to provide the participants hands on exposure to latest fabrication technologies (e.g., 3D printers, laser cutters, etc.).

The week long summer school will involve lectures by leading experts in the area, both from academia and industry. As a key feature of the summer school, participants will form small groups to design, plan, and finally fabricate physical models using available fabrication facilities at UCL (e.g., Institute of Making).

The summer school aims to bring together Computer Scientists, DIY Makers, and Engineers under a focused theme to explore new possibilities as 3D acquisition and accessible 3D printing/cutting options become easily accessible.

Given the practical nature of the summer school, we can only accept a small number of participants due to limited available fabrication setups. So please apply early. A number of scholarships will also be available to both UK and EU students. Individual accommodation in a nearby hotel will be available upon request.

For any further questions please contact:  n.mitra@cs.ucl.ac.uk.
