Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Technical teaching resource suits university use from
Granta Design, which we summarised at the time by saying "CES EduPack is based around a database of materials property information and a set of software tools, supported by textbooks and resources for lectures, projects and exercises".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Award winners are female engineering role models from
Institution of Engineering and Technology: "This year's IET Young Woman Engineer of the Year Award has gone to an electrical engineering programme co-ordinator with power company E.ON".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Abaqus
concerning its Abaqus Student Edition Version 6.7
- take a look at Student version cuts cost of FEA
which says: "Students can do their homework problems on their personal computers with Abaqus Student Edition and then use their initial model to solve larger problems in the lab using Abaqus Teaching Edition".
Take a look also at the news release from Flomerics, Software prices cut for universities,
as well as Students receive CAD education from SolidWorks Corporation,
and Japanese university places large CAD order from SolidWorks Corporation.
