Abstract

Based on examining existing literatures, this paper proposes a conceptual model that summarizes the potential impacts of 3DP technology on the big landscape of the T&A industry. The intention is also to provide a valuable framework for the T&A academic discipline to proactively think about the opportunities and challenges of integrating 3DP technology in the T&A industry and how to effectively incorporate 3DP into the future research and teaching agendas.
