Summary

Gain a solid foundation in Python programming and learn how it can be used to develop and deploy machine learning and deep learning models, empowering you to enhance your engineering workflows and unlock the potential of AI technologies in your field.

As engineering increasingly incorporates AI technologies such as Machine Learning and Deep Learning, mechanical engineers must acquire the necessary programming skills to develop and deploy such technologies.

Python is a powerful programming language that is used extensively across many engineering disciplines, including mechanical engineering.

This Python course for beginners has been designed specifically for mechanical engineers, providing them with a solid foundation in Python programming and the ability to use Python for developing and deploying AI models.

Follow-up course

Utilise Python to gain proficiency in building, training, and validating AI models.

Building AI models with engineering datasets

Who should attend?

Mechanical engineers interested in developing the Python programming skills for integrating AI technologies into their workflows.

Please note:
We require delegates to bring to the course a laptop/device with Python 3.6 or later or Anaconda installed. We use git bash for code repositories and running commands.

Instructions for downloading this software for free will be included in the course joining instructions. It is the delegate's responsibility to ensure that they have access to the necessary software prior to arriving.

How will I benefit?

  • Gain a solid foundation in Python programming tailored specifically for Mechanical Engineers
  • Acquire the necessary skills needed to learn more advanced techniques such as Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
  • Network with like-minded professionals interested in applying AI to engineering.
  • Have access to expert instructors who can provide guidance and answer your questions throughout the workshop.
