Case Study: Federal University of Campina Grande achieves immersive, industry-ready process simulation training with AVEVA (PRO/II, DYNSIM, SimCentral)

At the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, chemical engineering students travel from all over Brazil for exposure to engineering and simulation tools through the AVEVA Academic Program

The Federal University of Campina Grande partnered with AVEVA to close a skills gap in its chemical engineering program: students had limited exposure to industry-grade simulation software and were less prepared for professional roles. Via the AVEVA Academic Program, the university introduced AVEVA’s PRO/II, DYNSIM and the SimCentral simulation platform into its curriculum.

AVEVA delivered cloud access, hands-on simulator training and an open SimCentral environment that supports custom routines and differential equations; the program immerses more than 200 chemical engineering students in real-world process scenarios. As a result, students gain practical experience daily, sharpen problem‑solving skills, and leave UFCG better prepared for job placement and careers in process engineering.
