Today, machine design using 3D-CAD became common. The software available exceeds 50. However, in most companies and universities, one software is normally introduced and used. There would exist the other software, which could be more adequate to design a required product or structure. It is the thought that we compared 3D-CAD software and tried to design each subject required to use the appropriate 3D-CAD software. At the Kochi University of Technology, design education using 3D-CAD software has been considered in order for students to obtain the ability of design, which can be useful in their society life.
