This paper describes 3D-CAD design education for mechanical engineering students in Kochi University of Technology. After 4 design examples are given and designed by 3D-CAD, one free design is required in one quarter of 3^<rd> year. Based on the design exercise, a real product which was actually manufactured was the design target. The product is a small-sized wind power generator using rare earth magnet materials, which was expected to show higher power generation capability than the conventional power generator. By making the design target a real production one, the design education is considered to be realistic even if the target is simple.
