Objectives
The course aim is to give fundamental competence and skills in 3D visualization and its use. It should furthermore on the basis of theoretical discussions and practical examples give insight in the workflow in 3D visualization.
Learning outcomes
After completed course the student should be able to
- manage 3D software as an instrument for visualization
- understand and use terms and conception within 3D visualization
- apply knowledge of perspective and explain how different angels of viewing affect the compositing of the visualization
- understand and use the workflow through a 3D visualization project
- show ability to independent reflection and with own words explain and argue for the use of 3D visualization
Course content
Design theories and a general look over the 3D visualization area, review of software and fundamental 3D visualization exercises.

A student who has a certificate from MDU regarding a disability has the opportunity to submit a request for supportive measures during written examinations or other forms of examination, in accordance with the Rules and Regulations for Examinations at First-cycle and Second-cycle Level at Mälardalen University (2020/1655). It is the examiner who takes decisions on any supportive measures, based on what kind of certificate is issued, and in that case which measures are to be applied.
Suspicions of attempting to deceive in examinations (cheating) are reported to the Vice-Chancellor, in accordance with the Higher Education Ordinance, and are examined by the University’s Disciplinary Board. If the Disciplinary Board considers the student to be guilty of a disciplinary offence, the Board will take a decision on disciplinary action, which will be a warning or suspension.
