- Did you know that there is a Civil 3D Wish List where AUGI (Autodesk User Group International) members can submit and vote on improvements that they feel will make Civil 3D a better product? The first Civil 3D Wish List and was presented to our team by AUGI at this past fall's Autodesk University and we’ve been able to use it validate and, in some cases, adjust our product plans to better reflect your priorities.
AUGI Members can access the Civil 3D Wish List at the following URL:
http://www.augi.com/civil3d
Note that there is no charge to join AUGI so join now and get us your feedback on where you think we should focus our development resources. Fel free to nominiate big ticket items that change the way you work or small enhancements that make a specific command that much easier to use. The nice thing is that the broad AUGI civil community will help us rank the most important things.
Thanks in advance

Calling all students!
Posted 02/08/08 by Dave Simeone
Here’s something interesting… We recently launched a student design competition for engineering students. This is part of our global effort to help energize students about civil engineering as a profession and to do our part in getting them ready to enter the work force. This contest is part of a larger initiative of integrating AutoCAD Civil 3D into the civil engineering curriculum at universities and schools from around the world. The Autodesk Student Community portal is in its second year and it continues to pick up momentum. Since last September we’ve averaged close to 11,000 student downloads of Civil 3D per month. This is a student version of product that students are now using as part of their Civil 3D-based course curriculum! Yup... this means we should start seeing the first wave of Civil 3D trained graduates entering the workforce this spring.
Anyway – here’s information on the Student Design Challenge. Anything that you can do to help get the word out would be greatly appreciated. It’s in your best interest as it’s these folks who’ll eventually be joining your organizations. For me, I’m in a hyper competitive mode since the Patriots lost and I want to see more civil entries in the competition than Architecture, Mechanical or any of the other categories in the competition! That’ll give me at least a little joy.
