How much do internship solidworks 3d modeling jobs pay per hour?

As of Jun 14, 2026, the average hourly pay for internship solidworks 3d modeling in the United States is $19.31, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $16.11 and $20.91 per hour, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is an Internship in SolidWorks 3D Modeling?

An Internship in SolidWorks 3D Modeling is a temporary position, typically for students or recent graduates, where you gain practical experience using SolidWorks software to create, edit, and analyze 3D models. Interns often work under the supervision of experienced engineers or designers and may assist with product design, prototyping, and documentation tasks. This role helps interns develop CAD skills, apply engineering concepts, and prepare for a career in mechanical or product design.

How does an Internship in SolidWorks 3D Modeling typically collaborate with engineering teams during projects?

As a SolidWorks 3D Modeling intern, you'll often work closely with engineering teams to develop and refine CAD models based on project requirements. This collaboration may involve attending team meetings, discussing design objectives with engineers, and incorporating feedback to update models. Interns typically support the design process by creating detailed parts, assemblies, and technical drawings, ensuring that their work aligns with broader project goals. This hands-on teamwork offers valuable exposure to professional workflows and helps interns build communication and problem-solving skills relevant to engineering environments.

What is the difference between Internship Solidworks 3D Modeling vs Mechanical Design Engineer?

AspectInternship Solidworks 3D ModelingMechanical Design Engineer
CredentialsTypically students or entry-level with basic Solidworks skillsBachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or related field, often with experience
Work EnvironmentInternship setting, often in design or engineering firmsFull-time professional role in manufacturing, product design, or engineering firms
Industry UsageUsed for gaining experience, assisting in design projectsResponsible for designing, analyzing, and developing mechanical systems

While an Internship Solidworks 3D Modeling focuses on gaining hands-on experience with basic design tasks, a Mechanical Design Engineer holds a full-time role with advanced responsibilities in designing and developing mechanical products. Both roles utilize Solidworks, but the engineer role requires more credentials and experience.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Internship Solidworks 3D Modeling, and why are they important?

To thrive in a SolidWorks 3D Modeling internship, you need a foundational understanding of engineering principles, CAD design, and experience with SolidWorks software, typically gained through relevant coursework or technical training. Familiarity with SolidWorks, 3D modeling techniques, and possibly certifications like CSWA (Certified SolidWorks Associate) are valuable assets. Attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and strong communication skills are important soft skills for collaborating with teams and interpreting design requirements. These competencies ensure accurate, efficient modeling and effective teamwork in engineering and product development environments.
