The student versions are available to download free of cost from the Autodesk website, and fellow CEans (students) are recommended to try them out. The softwares are not constraint to the Civil engineering trade, and are useful to a wide variety of professions like art and entertainment creation, animation etc.
With the building design softwares, Autodesk is heading towards BIM (Building Information Modelling) in 2012. That is a welcome move, given that more and more engineers and Architects are dropping CAD and starting to use BIM for their projects.
