MIT xPRO’s AI-Driven Computational Design is a seven-week online program that offers a practical exploration of AI-based design and manufacturing processes. Designed to bridge computational design theory with real-world engineering practice, the learning journey examines how generative AI, simulation, and optimization reshape the way products move from concept to production. As AI tools evolve faster than most design workflows can absorb, engineering and manufacturing teams are often left choosing between outdated processes and fragmented, ad hoc AI experiments that lack rigor or reproducibility. Through key insights from leading MIT faculty and practical work with industry tools, including Fusion 360, ChatGPT, and Adobe Firefly, this program equips you with the skills to represent design spaces, predict performance using AI surrogate models, and translate optimized designs into manufacturing instructions for your organization.
