By making ANSYS technology available in its mechanical, electrical and civil engineering departments, SJSU's students will receive a modern product development education with sophisticated software that is widely deployed in the engineering universe.

"SJSU is excited to provide its engineering students with access to the ANSYS simulation product suite," said Fred Baraz, professor of SJSU's mechanical engineering department. "Having our students exposed to such complex technology is extremely beneficial, especially early in their career development. We look forward to continuing to work with ANSYS and pushing the technology envelope."

"ANSYS is committed to helping today's students become tomorrow's innovators," said Arin Rouse, academic program manager at ANSYS. "Currently, many graduating engineers have not been exposed to simulation technology.  Our relationship with San Jose State will help produce engineers who can use simulation and immediately contribute to their respective engineering disciplines after graduation."
