Using key industry solutions enabled Claudio to
gain new knowledge about plant design, support-
ing his employability post-university.

The ability to combine my
theoretical studies with using
“leading industry solutions has
enabled me not only to define
the direction of my career but
has also equipped me with
skills that are needed during my
career. This has also increased
employability because I already
have real-life work experience
and knowledge of industry

According to Claudio, having access to
real-life design solutions provides an in-
teresting and stimulating journey, enabling
students to grow, gain professional skills
and achieve a strong understanding of the
basic design skills used in plant design
and engineering. Based on his experience
with Hexagon solutions, Claudio recom-
mends that engineering students every-
where should have the opportunity to learn
about industry solutions throughout their
university education.

“After graduating, I hope to continue to
combine my theoretical knowledge with
real-life work in a technical engineering de- Entrance to the gas and vapor turbine, with generators and transformers

It is essential that the engineers
and designers of the future gain
“experience of industrial
solutions at the beginning of
their studies. Only this way they
can combine the theory and
the practical skills together,
equipping them with real-
life experience for the career
they are about to embark on”,
