Featured Technology:
Electronics Workbench Multisim
Multisim 8, the world's most widely-used electronics simulation software, uniquely combines circuit simulation with schematic entry, helping students design electronics circuits, perform experiments and explore circuit behavior. By integrating NI LabVIEW with Multisim, students can compare actual circuit output with simulated output that reinforces concepts of circuit design and analysis.

LTR Provides LabVIEW Resource to Academic Users
LabVIEW Technical Resource (LTR), a leading technical journal in the LabVIEW community is offering a complimentary sample issue download and subscription discount to academia. LTR's example code can help you improve your LabVIEW productivity and increase the quality of your LabVIEW programming.
Download your sample issue.

Featured Companion Product: SolidWorks
Integrating 3D mechanical design and analysis with physical test results provides closed loop feedback for design engineers and students. Using LabVIEW and NI INSIGHT with SolidWorks and COSMOSWorks, design engineers can use real world measurements as part of the design cycle by mapping acquired data onto 3D CAD models to identify design trouble spots.
Attend a Webcast on-Demand for more information.
