Technical University of Melaka Malaysia (UTeM) deployed the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to give engineering students hands-on experience with CATIA for 3D design and composites, DELMIA for virtual manufacturing simulation, and SIMULIA for structural analysis. Students applied these tools to design, simulate, and manufacture a formula-style electric vehicle that won first place in static and dynamic events. The curriculum integration improved design collaboration, reduced physical rework, and contributed to a 90 percent graduate employment rate within six months.

Key takeaways

Students used CATIA for 3D modeling, composites design, and digital mock-up collaboration across disciplines.

DELMIA virtual manufacturing simulation detected collisions and process errors before physical production.

SIMULIA stress and impact analysis plus ergonomics studies validated vehicle safety and driver comfort.

Project-based learning on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform raised UTeM graduate employment to 90 percent within six months.

Mawea Industries implemented the platform and trained faculty, enabling rapid student proficiency.
