Autodesk is offering students and educational faculty downloads of select AutoCAD and Autodesk design and publishing software for FREE for limited time. You must have a valid school email address to get this deal. Choose from 3ds Max, Maya, Smoke, Civil 3D, and much more titles. The student version of the software has the same functionality as the professional versions, but all projects a user creates will feature a “watermark” border that notes it was made with an educational product.
