Students, faculty, and any other Cornell instructor can use Autodesk software on their Cornell-owned or personally-owned computers through Autodesk Educational Licensing. Free educational licensing for qualified uses can be obtained directly from Autodesk.Īny other use of Autodesk software, including work related to university facilities, requires a paid license. This program offers nearly all of Autodesk’s software products for free when used for purposes directly related to learning, teaching, training, or research and development as part of instructional functions. “Autodesk for Education” is Autodesk’s educational licensing program for students and instructors at accredited secondary and post-secondary schools in North America and many countries across the world. 3DS Max and Cinema 4D are better at it since they can import lot of CAD data file formats out of the box.Autodesk is a provider of 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software. You can, however, use them for creating animations for marketing material out of CAD data. You might've seen some 'hard surface design' or 'scifi concept design' stuff made in them but they're far from actual mechanical design. At least that's not what they're developed for, so even if users try to bring some engineering oriented functionality into them through plugins and all, it'll never be as efficient as a CAD software. Fusion 360 as of today is mostly being used by hobbyists, medium size companies and startups but not large firms.īlender and Maya are not at all for engineering. You can also try Creo and OnShape, which are free for students (I've never used them myself though).Ĭoming to your interests in rocket design, which comes under a broader field of Aerospace engineering, CATIA and NX are widely used in this industry for design. (You can access all Autodesk student software here⬆)Īnother Autodesk product, called Inventor is also free for students. It's jus for verifying if you actually qualify for that license.
There's nothing to worry about, like selling your data. I've got myself a copy of it right after I enrolled in college so I had submitted my college ID for verification. That's why they ask for school details or some of your personal details. Fusion 360 is free for students, but Autodesk needs to verify that you're actually a student.
