University of Alabama CE401 Wrap-up
Posted by Jason Hickey on 14th March 2008
On Wednesday, I made the trek to Tuscaloosa, Alabama to work for the last time with the Senior Design class (CE401) in the University of Alabama’s Civil Engineering program. The students have been working diligently, and have come up with some pretty good designs for their project, a connector road and utilities for a school site. I also met with the program’s survey instructor, who is wanting to use Civil 3D for his class as well. We went over some of the basics of the program before lunch, and I think he has some great plans for integrating the program throughout the class. The entire department is trying to decide on the best plan of action for integrating Civil 3D throughout the entire program, and wanted to pick my brain on a few things. I could see that the project would require some assistance, so I had contacted Sanjay Asnani at Autodesk for his assistance. He’s a really cool guy, and has a cool role with Autodesk - from his website:
In my position at Autodesk, I have an interesting role to drive awareness of Civil 3D in post-secondary education market. I get to visit cool campuses throughout North America, and spend time with Deans/faculty members to understand their issues and challenges.
He should be visiting with the school in a few weeks, and will definitely help the University progress to the next level with their implementation.
