AutoDesk Creation Suite

Autodesk is a leader in 3D design, engineering, and entertainment software.

Students working from a PC on campus can use AutoDesk programs free of charge, which will be automatically activated for you under one of our site licenses. If you are working from home, you can verify that you’re a student on the AutoDesk website to use the software at home.
