Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society Incorporates Algor FEA into National Qualification Exam

ALGOR, Inc. announced that the Chinese Mechanical Engineering Society (CMES) has chosen to formally incorporate ALGOR finite element analysis (FEA) software into its national Mechanical Design Engineer (MDE) qualification examination. Students who successfully complete the exam receive certification as a qualified mechanical design engineer, having demonstrated proficiency in using computer-aided engineering (CAE) software – such as ALGOR FEA – to solve engineering problems.

Headquartered in Beijing, China, CMES is a professional society engaged in promoting the art and science of mechanical engineering. CMES sponsors MDE qualification examinations at test centers in provinces throughout China. Earning MDE certification can help engineering students qualify for internships as well as increase career opportunities.

"ALGOR software is a world-renowned CAE tool," said Wei Sun, secretary-general of the CMES. "We are pleased to incorporate it as one of the training and testing tools in the MDE qualification examination."

According to John Li, Ph.D., ALGOR Director of International Business Development, "The ALGOR China staff is honored to participate in the MDE project because it promotes education and the use of FEA in the international engineering community. Students will soon be able to download ALGOR training materials from the CMES web site and use them to study for the exam. "
