Students will be taught how to use PTC Creo Parametric to model two components for a construction kit, a cube and a strut. The primer teaches students how to use PTC Creo Parametric by providing an example of how they might use the software in the real world. The primer introduces the modeling, visualization and design tools in PTC Creo Parametric, the company’s flagship 3D CAD software. The first lesson in the PTC Creo Primer for students is on how to model a cube and a strut. The PTC University Academic Program is offering free downloads of the PTC Creo Student Edition as well as a free PTC Creo Primer Guide for Students.
