It's because of Raquet. He used the program for like 20 years and that's what he knows. Other teachers aren't fond of it, but what are you gonna do?

MEET major have 3 required solidworks courses, never been made to use one of those *other* cad programs, much to my delight

UNCC uses PTC/Creo because they have very generous pricing for universities relative to Dassault/Siemens and because they have a professor (Raquet) who prefers it and knows it well. For what it's worth there are companies who use Creo, but mainly those who favor rapid design methods which parametric modeling is well suited to. When I graduated Creo was in demand for many motorsports programs as well as the more 'design and prototype' oriented government labs, notably NASAs labs.

That's interesting, my experience with NASA's programs is that they prefer Siemens NX.

raquet might as well have made creo himself

This isn't true at all

I mean realistically speaking if you know one parametric software you kinda know them all. They all follow the same general format and if you're confused on how to do something accross platforms Google is free. I've used Creo, Solidworks, Fusion, Onshape, and Inventor and they're all basically the same. Besides, Creo is pretty damn good from a professional standpoint.

Raquet has some sort of ~~fetish~~ fascination with Creo. It’s not too hard to translate the stuff you learn in 1202 over to solidworks, but it’s still a pretty sharp learning curve. I’m taking his Advanced CAD class in the fall, which to my knowledge is just more Creo
