Are you a student of design, engineering or any other course that uses the tools of Autodesk? Then you will like this news a lot!

The company said that from now on it offers its leading software in various segments free of charge to students, instructors and academic institutions worldwide. According to them, more than 680 million students and educators from more than 800,000 schools in 188 countries can now enjoy free access to Autodesk professional software and services for use in classrooms, laboratories and at home.
Let us agree: it does not make much sense to charge stratospheric figures for software in a market such as education, after all, it is just these students who will one day become skilled professionals and / or business owners, but a good time to make money on them.
It is worth noting that Autodesk no longer charged for the use of software in this segment, but placed a watermark on all generated files; now, this is over. Students have access to the same final versions that are marketed by the company through licenses valid for a period of three years. Software such as AutoCAD, Sketchbook, 3D Max, Maya, among others, are on the cake.
