For students interested in excelling in studying engineering, Solid Edge® Student Edition software delivers the industry’s most advanced CAD technology giving the freedom to capture ideas quickly and intuitively. By leveraging synchronous technology within Solid Edge, students can focus on learning engineering principles and not on the CAD system. Included is the same core functionality used by leading engineers so all types of projects from machines to stylized products can be created. This free download is available to any active student or instructor attending any academic institution such as accredited universities, technical colleges, trade and high schools. The duration of this offering is for one year, but can be extended with a re-registration. Usage of the student edition is intended for academic course work, so files cannot be opened in commercial versions, and 2D drawings are watermarked. Siemens also offers a University Edition that includes more capability and is perfect for a site-wide implementation. Instructors should visit the Educator section for details.
