Abstract
Integration of finite element software in undergraduate engineering courses was carried out. The incorporation of assignments based on the commercial FEA code, ANSYS, into standard lecture courses in mechanical and chemical engineering was highlighted. ANSYS has advanced graphics and animation capabilities that can aid students in visualization of fluid flow or structural vibrations. The ANSYS macro capability was utilized in assignments in both the fluid mechanics and vibrations courses.
