If you plan on becoming a Structural Engineer, my company typically looks for applicants with the following minimum technical knowledge:
Mastery of Windows and MS Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.)
Competence with structural analysis software such as STAAD.Pro, RISA, RAM Structural Suite, SCIA Engineer, ETabs, SAP, etc.
Understanding of production software such as AutoCAD, Revit, and other BIM programs (namely Navisworks).
Software for Chemical Engineers
omputer packages such as Excel, MATLAB®, Mathcad, CHEMCAD, Aspen HYSYS®, gPROMS, CFD, DEM, GAMS, and AIMMS are used in the design and operation of chemical reactors, distillation columns, cooling towers, and more.
Some examples of software used by engineers are Microsoft Excel. It is the most used software in the industry, and it has more to it than just rows and columns, and ANY student should ake some time to take a little proficiency at this while they have the time. Any 3-D modeling software is used. One has a lot of choices here like Catia, Pro-E, Solidworks and much more. The best I can give on that is chose one, anyone and practiced a lot with it. It doesn’t matter which software it is as long as you are good at it. Another one could be Office and Powerpoint, and these tools are essential while giving a presentation or submitting a report. Ansys is a kind of cool software, and the different modules will be used by a few companies based on the requirement. The last one could be AutoCAD it is not used much in the industry, but it might be useful only at times. This is optional, and just the basics would do.
Engineers use different software in work. For example, there are some versatile tools like Autodesk products which can be used in different industries and something more specialized like the field planning software from https://www.fieldap.com/ for oil industry. It all depends on the needs and situation.
