Abstract

Education system has served as support for local and international industry, where companies from different clus- ters are benefited from the skills of its employees. However, in times where the response speed has changed, where lead times are becoming more narrow and is totally necessary to be constantly innovating, is also necessary that the current educational models fit to work environment claim. This is why it is not enough that a product design professional know about drawing and 3D modeling tools (CAD). It is necessary that from the moment they are learning these tools, these are understood with an applied approach, ie, from a design and product develop- ment discipline. Then we will discuss about one teaching model that involve computer-aided design (CAD) ap- plied to design environments and product development in the field of engineering.
