Resources for Students and Educators

Designers, engineers, and digital artists are influenced by climate change, globalization, and infrastructure booms. Autodesk software and educational training resources help students learn industry trends—like Digital Prototyping, Building Information Modeling (BIM), Digital Entertainment Creation (DEC), and sustainable design—to turn these global challenges into design opportunities.

Student Showcase

Students are transforming ideas into compelling 3D designs with the latest Autodesk technology—and are sharing those designs with a community of more than 3 million members around the world. Students collaborate with peers, learn from one another, and are inspired by the innovative ideas being uploaded to the Design Showcase.
