The Autodesk® Education Suite for Mechanical Engineering helps educators prepare the next generation of mechanical engineers and designers with an extensive set of Digital Prototyping tools used by industry professionals around the world. The suite supports multidisciplinary studies, enabling industrial design and mechanical engineering students to use a single digital model, which boosts design efficiency by simulating the real-world performance of their designs. It promotes the use of applications such as Autodesk® Showcase® and Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software for highly realistic design visualization and simulation of digital prototypes, helping students move into the workforce with a competitive advantage.

• Promotes the use of applications such as Autodesk® Showcase® and Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software for highly realistic design visualization and simulation of digital prototypes, helping students move into the workforce with a competitive advantage.
• Integrates Autodesk technology into the classroom with interactive exercises, modular projects, and instructor lesson slides that emphasize design concepts instead of software.
• Offers students and educators free* learning and curriculum materials, software for personal use, and discussion forums—all accessible through the Autodesk Education Community at autodesk.com/edcommunity.
