  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Additive Manufacturing – Developments in Training and Education

Abstract

In this chapter, key elements, current technologies, and research on AM for the two aspects of developing an AM system and applying AM in a collaborative research are presented. The chapter also discusses AM as a stand-alone course and as a process explained in an engineering course. Additionally, it discusses a variety of examples wherein AM has been utilized as service and outreach tool to recruit K-16 students into Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) programs.
