Autodesk

Autodesk offers a comprehensive line of design software for engineers, architects, and designers.

Autodesk Comprehensive Education Solution (ACES) is a flexible program that allows schools to stay current with Autodesk's most popular software. West Virginia University participates in this "ACES" program resulting in access to the Autocad family of products at significantly lower prices. Additionally, this license is available to all of WVU (including the branch campuses) and can be used in a lab, office, or for use at home. Licenses are not perpetual and need to be renewed annually. If the license agreement is not renewed, the software must be uninstalled.
