Software Scope

The design and analysis softwares like AutoCAD, Catia, ProE, IronCAD, CadianMech, Hypermesh etc have washed their way into the market today. As the list has kept on going, it keeps us in perplexity whether which one to cling on with.
In India, most of the high level companies are using AutoCAD as their basic premium software for designing and drafting purpose. Also, proficiently & professionally, AutoCAD deals as the basic concept of design for a design Engineer. Just as C & C++ are for a Software Engineer. Hence the roots of the design are laid from AutoCAD onwards. For every Engineering Graduate, who hopes towards design field must step in through AutoCAD.
After we get perfection in AutoCAD, we ourself can feel like an expertise in Design & Drafting. The further advancements in the design field which are mostly applicable are Catia & ProE. Companies are tending towards these two packages which made work easier than AutoCAD for modeling. So as a professional design Engineer, it is better to choose one among Catia & ProE as a further advancement. Just going on with one of these packages with keeping grip on AutoCAD will make you a perfect Design Engineer.
While peeping on to the edge of the analysis softwares, it is better to step in with Ansys. Ansys is the backbone for all the designing softwares and its the basic one to start on with. Along with this, Hypermesh is a new evolvement which has made surface analysis very easy.
Hypermesh is the deepest point in the surface analysis. It is an excellent tool being very rarely used at present throughout the world. There is a lot of scope for this package as it is an excellent tool which can never be neglected.
A Graduate with all the above specified courses will be a master at Design & Analysis.
