MAYA Architecture - Lighting and Rendering with Mental Ray
Unlock the art and science of professional 3D lighting and rendering with this in-depth course on Autodesk Maya using the Mental Ray rendering engine. Designed for aspiring visual artists, architectural visualizers, and intermediate Maya users, this course guides learners through the entire rendering pipeline—from lighting fundamentals to advanced realism-enhancing techniques. Through two progressive modules, learners begin by mastering basic lighting types, understanding light behavior, and configuring the Mental Ray renderer for accurate illumination. The journey continues into advanced workflows, where students apply occlusion shading for depth, refine background reflections, and optimize final render settings for studio-quality outputs. Each lesson builds practical expertise with clear demonstrations and structured exercises. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to produce visually compelling and technically sound 3D renders for architectural and design visualizations.

Introduction to Power Semiconductor Switches
This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5721, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering. This course is primarily aimed at first year graduate students interested in engineering or science, along with professionals with an interest in power electronics and semiconductor devices . It is the first course in the "Semiconductor Power Device" specialization that focusses on diodes, MOSFETs, IGBT but also covers legacy devices (BJTs, Thyristors and TRIACS) as well as state-of-the-art devices such as silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes and MOSFETs as well as Gallium Nitride (GaN) HEMTs. The specialization provides an overview of devices, the physics background needed to understand the device operation, the construction of a device circuit model from a physical device model and a description of the device fabrication technology including packaging. This first course provides an introduction to semiconductor power switches, including a classification based on power switch properties, a description of key power switches, an overview of device data sheets, and the identification of on-state and power losses of diodes and MOSFET individually and in a power convertor circuit. It provides the link between power converter applications and individual devices, through analysis and simulation and prepares learners for the in-depth device analysis of the other courses in the specialization.

Develop a UX Customer Problem Statement in Miro
By the end of this project, you will be able to create an accurate customer problem statement that diagrams the problem that your brand or product will solve for the customer. The power of creating a customer problem statement is that it becomes business intelligence that can maximize business opportunities by solving user experience problems. It does this by expanding upon the knowledge of the customer’s user experience by empathizing with the customer and the challenges or needs they must meet as a part of their normal life journey. In your project you will understand the benefits and use cases for customer problem statements while developing your own customer problem statement geared toward solving user experience or UX problems. To do this, you will gain hands-on experience applying design thinking, user experience knowledge, and context from the customer journey to build a visualization of a customer problem statement in the Miro online visual collaboration platform for teamwork. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.

Estima la carga de trabajo de tu equipo
¿Cómo puede una empresa anticipar cuánto tiempo o esfuerzo requerirá completar una tarea? ¿Cómo puede manejar los imprevistos que surgen durante el proceso? La estimación ágil implica evaluar no solo el tiempo, sino también el esfuerzo necesario para completar cada elemento de trabajo en el backlog. Esto, a su vez, mejora la planificación del sprint. Sin embargo, la estimación puede resultar complicada si no se conocen las técnicas adecuadas. Este curso está dirigido a profesionales en posiciones de nivel táctico, con o sin personal a cargo, interesados en aplicar prácticas ágiles de Scrum y Kanban para mejorar la gestión del trabajo en equipos de proyectos o productos en sus empresas. En él, aprenderás a estimar correctamente mediante técnicas eficaces, lo que te permitirá comprometerte con lo que realmente puedes lograr.
