There is a significant discrepancy between how academia prepares students and what the industry expects them to do when they graduate. To close that gap, new design and manufacturing techniques must be introduced to students as early as possible. Academia should also strive to ensure students are being taught how to use the tools currently used by prospective employers.
I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Leah Griesmer, a third-year mechanical engineering student at the University of Cincinnati. Leah has an interest in additive manufacturing and 3D modeling and plans to get into product design after graduation.
In this episode, you will learn about the benefits of learning CAD software, specifically NX before entering the workforce. You will also get to hear about Leah’s positive experience with NX highlighting its user-friendly interface, CAE capabilities, and seamless integration with other CAD software. Additionally, you will find Leah's insights as she provides valuable perspectives for aspiring designers and highlights the exciting possibilities in the world of product design.

The products of modern engineering enterprises are characterized by high complexity and precision. Furthermore, to produce competitive products it is required to provide a short time for design and the introduction of new products as well as the modifications of products already produced. Such a problem cannot be solved without the use of modern software both for design and technological preparation of production and for engineering analysis.
I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Dr. Sam Anand, a professor and industry expert with 35 years of experience in advanced and digital manufacturing. Sam is also the director of the Siemens Simulation Center and co-director of the Industry 4.0 Institute at the University of Cincinnati.
In this episode, he will help us understand the impact of the Siemens Simulation Technology Center on engineering education and research at the University. You will get to learn about Sam’s expertise and experiences in teaching digital manufacturing and design to students at the university level. And you will also hear more about using Siemens software and tools in the curriculum and the focus on solving real industrial problems through simulation.

Adopting new technologies allows businesses to expand their capabilities and keep up with the competition. However, new technology can sometimes become too difficult to maintain, requiring extra costs to run securely. To solve this problem, companies are now offering their software products as a service, eliminating the need for customers to perform tasks such as installing, updating, and security.
I’m your host, Jennifer Piper, and today I’m joined by Paul Brown, Senior Marketing Director at Siemens Digital Industries Software. He’ll help us understand what software as a service (SaaS) is and why it has become popular among companies.
In this episode, you’ll learn about the benefits of SaaS to companies and users. You’ll also learn about the different products that Siemens offers as SaaS, including the most recent addition. Additionally, Paul will share his views on the future of SaaS and why it should not be seen as a replacement for desktop solutions.
