AutoCAD Civil 3D for Educators: Teach Design, Not Drafting
As the civil engineering industry continues to adopt AutoCAD Civil 3D, the need for trained
engineering students increases. Using modeling-based applications in academia not only allows students to
learn engineering fundamentals and explore creative designs, but also prepares them for exciting careers in
civil design. ...
For real-life applications or what-if scenarios, your students projects require changes and updates throughout the design process. With the AutoCAD Civil 3D dynamic civil model, design objects are inter-connected, so a single design change updates all related elements, allowing students to delve deeper into engineering design. AutoCAD Civil 3D generates production drafting directly from the model so students focus on design, not on drafting.
This class will introduce educators to the simple design and collaboration tools in Civil 3D; well also discuss the interface with Google Earth for building terrain models and collaboration tools to enhance project About the Speaker: Sanjay is a solutions specialist for the Education Division at Autodesk.
Leveraging his 14 years of Civil design experience in the consulting, government, software, and education sectors, Sanjay drives awareness and adoption of AutoCAD Civil 3D in North American universities.
