Required prerequisite knowledge
Prerequisites: Completed Bachelor studies, Basic Knowledge in Rhino.
Course content
The elective course will introduce computational modelling in Rhino and Grasshopper together with some analytical functions in Grasshopper. The associative modelling component introduces beginners to associative design and those that already know Grasshopper to a series of generative tools within the software.
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
At the end of the course the student will have gained knowledge in computational modelling in Rhino and associative modelling in Grasshopper, as well as some analytical tools in the Grasshopper environment.
Skills:
The student will have gained skills in computational modelling in Rhino and Grasshopper.
General competence:
After successful completion of the course students are expected to have gained good working knowledge in Rhino and Grasshopper and the ability to utilize these skills in a design project.
