Software licenses for Teaching purposes

Teach future engineers with the same software used by the industry today! A major advantage that students can add to their chemical engineering curriculum!

OVERVIEW OF OUR ACADEMIC PROGRAM FOR TEACHING

Thanks to their didactic side, we are convinced that the use of our software can enormously enrich the course by the hands-on training of students. These are the tools many students will later go on to use in their professional career. Hands-on experience with these types of software tools constitutes for them an undeniable asset in the labor market. Students trained with engineering simulation software are very quickly operational on any similar tool.

The role of the professor is also facilitated. Lectures on thermodynamics, unit operations such as distillation, heat transfer and chemical reaction, or more generally process design, are enriched by the use of powerful software which enables the visualization of the various phenomena and therefore leads to a clearer understanding of major concepts.

Students and teachers receive the same software provided to our industrial customers (complete and unlimited versions). Subscribers also fully benefit from our services of maintenance, update, training and technical support (MUTS Services). In particular, people in charge of teaching have access, free of charge, to our scheduled level 1 training sessions (see upcoming schedule and teaching content) related to software used.

 

VERY ATTRACTIVE CONDITIONS!

A VERY EASY ORDER PROCESS : YOU CHOOSE YOUR AGREEMENT AND FILL IT OUT

When purchasing software licensed for teaching purposes, the university commits to use the software solely for teaching its regular students and agrees not to undertake any research, study, or consulting service for third parties using the software, even if this is free of charge.

To register, it is necessary to establish an “Agreement” between ProSim and your university. This agreement specifies the conditions of use of our software and the obligations of the parties. Two types of Software License Agreements are available.

Please choose either the Renewable annual license or the Long-term license agreement, download the corresponding MS-Excel file and fill out the form. This form must be signed by an authorized representative of your university and then forwarded to us by fax or mail.

 

Annual license with tacit renewal: the initial duration of the agreement is one year. This period is then tacitly renewed year by year (unless the agreement is terminated by one of the parties). The license fee is payable every year, upfront, as long as the agreement is valid. This fee escalates at 3% per annum after the first year.

>>Annual agreement with tacit renewal to fill out.

 

Fixed-term license: In principle, the agreement runs over several years (between 1 and 12 years). The license expires at the end of this period and is not tacitly renewed. The license fee requested is payable only once, upfront, for the full period. There is no escalation fee per annum when a Long-term license is chosen.
