For courses in Measurement and Instrumentation, Introduction to Electrical Engineering, and Signals and Systems.

National Instruments' LabVIEW is the de facto industry standard for test, measurement, and automation software solutions. The LabVIEW Student Edition delivers the graphical programming capabilities of the LabVIEW professional version. With the Student Edition, students can design graphical programming solutions to their classroom problems and laboratory experiments.

With LabVIEW, you build virtual instruments (VIs) instead of writing programs. You quickly create front panel user interfaces, giving you interactive control of your software system. To specify the functionality, you intuitively assemble block diagrams-a natural design notation for engineers and scientists. Typical uses of LabVIEW in Mechanical Engineering include measurements and instrumentation, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, and automatic control systems.
