Goals	This course aims to enable the student to understand the general logic of the 3Ds Max program, to use this program effectively in modeling, and to gain the competence of modeling through 3DsMax in the projects that they will create in their own professional field, and to enable them to use their own original models in their projects.
Course Content	The course includes theoretical and practical knowledge that will help students to work on the stage using the tools of 3DsMax software in order to improve their three-dimensional modeling skills and to develop their visions of 3D design.
Learning Outcomes	- To recognize and know the interface of the 3DsMax program - Using VievPort, MenuBar, CommandPanel, MainToolbar interfaces - To be able to provide software navigation - To be able to create 3D models with spline modeling techniques - To be able to model using polygon modeling techniques - To be able to create basic 3D visual content with Spline and Polygon modeling techniques
