Being able to work on small individual design projects with Altair Software as part of the lectures not only fosters their interest in the possibilities offered by numerical simulation but is also a great basis for their future career.

I recommend Altair Inspire to students because it has an intuitive user interface. It can be learned & used relatively quickly as a design aid to help improve design competition or senior design projects.

I'm very happy with our Altair Alliance; it's grown from strength to strength and I see it getting better and better. Hopefully, we'll see a lot of our students going out there, utilizing these products, and producing technology we'll all be talking about and recognizing how we moved the process forward.

Indian Engineering Institute CoEP Establishes CAE Optimization Center Employing Altair HyperWorks
This success story illustrates how a reputed engineering institute of national acclaim has set-up a CAE - Optimization Lab, equipped with Altair HyperWorks CAE tools, to expose their students to the latest technologies in product design, analysis, and optimization. Within the range of the CAE - Optimization Lab, CoEP has launched various courses to impart knowledge on Altair HyperWorks. This CoEP initiative bridges the gap between industry expectations and needs and the knowledge that graduating students possess. Being trained on advanced and contemporary technologies such as the HyperWorks suite has opened new opportunities for students to embark their career, has improved the national ranking of the college due to investing in a modern and robust infrastructure, and also has benefitted the industry by creating a talent pool of well-trained manpower, available to work on breakthrough engineering initiatives.
Engineering Design Using a Small Autonomous Robot for Student Education
As part of educational programs for students to acquire practical skills and knowledge, Aichi University Technology (AUT) participated in a demonstration test competition aiming for future Mars exploration. A Rocket Launch for International Student Satellites (ARLISS), is a competitive event for the evaluation of autonomous robots – conducting tests relating to their autonomous descent back to the ground after being launched 400m above the ground using a small rocket. For the final designed robot, HyperWorks was used for structural analysis to understand whether or not the robot meets requirements, and MotionSolve was extremely useful for practical industrial education that is linked to CAD design.
