The Collaborative Programme in Additive Manufacturing is an initiative of the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) hosted and managed by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR).

Over the past 10 years, the programme has successfully fostered new knowledge generation in the field of additive manufacturing (AM) and supported a large cohort of postgraduate students conducting research projects focused on both metal AM and polymer AM technology value chains.

Support is available for projects within these key focus areas:

  • Industry-led AM research and development;
  • Postgraduate research initiatives; and
  • Mentorship and support programmes.
