A I HADa world leader in industrial software that promotes digital transformation and sustainability, has opened registration for its AVEVA Process Simulation Academic Competition. The competition serves as a platform for engineering students in North America and Europe to demonstrate their process simulation skills and provides the opportunity to secure an AVEVA internship or take home a cash prize worth $3,000.
The competition is open to students residing in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway and the EU.
The annual AVEVA Process Simulation Academic Competition is an exceptional opportunity for chemical engineering students to enrich their process simulation skills using the latest technology.
Participants are invited to tackle real-world sustainability issues using AVEVA Process Simulation, the new paradigm in process engineering. Even students with no previous experience can immerse themselves in this easy-to-use software to unleash their potential.
Mihaela Hahne, Senior Director Sales Development – Academics at AVEVA, said, “As an industrial software provider, AVEVA is committed to inspiring chemical engineers to help solve the world’s sustainability challenges from the earliest stages of their careers. The 2023 AVEVA Academic Competition is designed to encourage students to develop professional skills and solve real-life engineering problems.”
AVEVA competition plays a significant role in developing a new generation of engineers, as well as achieving its goal of promoting sustainable and inclusive industrial growth.
In 2021, the AVEVA Academic Competition attracted over 100 entries. A total of 46 four-person teams and 32 individual students from 20 universities across North America participated in the event that year. In the same year, 59 individual students and 53 teams of four students participated in the same Europe competition.
Hahne added, “We’ve witnessed some remarkable achievements in previous years. We believe that, in partnership with universities, we can help design and build a sustainable future together. Today’s students will shape the future of our planet and tackle the challenges presented by climate change.”
Lea Scharli, Simulation Support Engineer at AVEVA, said: “The AVEVA Process Simulation Academic Competition is a great opportunity for students to work on real problems and gain perspectives on the possibilities of process simulation. Having participated in the previous edition of the competition, I was challenged to put my theoretical knowledge from the university into practice – which led me to work at AVEVA as an engineer! Through this programme, AVEVA supports students professionally and personally and opens up multiple avenues for advancement. The potential is endless with AVEVA Process Simulation. Engineers and users can implement their own models, which allows us to work freely and solve problems creatively.”
This year’s challenge concerns the production and transport of hydrogen in a clean and sustainable way. Students will use the same tool currently used by the largest companies in the chemical sector. The experience of using the same software as potential employers puts participating students ahead of their peers and enhances their professional profile.
AVEVA Process Simulation is cloud-enabled software used to design and optimize industrial equipment, processes and plants. Breakthrough ease of use and simple data connections allow engineering teams to evaluate more ideas faster. Greenhouse gas metrics built right into the models help put sustainability at the heart of process engineering.
