Aero Engineering major with a new PC

So, my old $210 refurbished Dell PC finally imploded after about 2 years. I'm getting a new one with gaming components in it, but as I hear from my friends in The Netherlands, they need higher-performance PCs for Bio-Lab simulations, pictures, programs, etc.

I'm at a massive point where I'm at 'generals' in school and I don't give a fuck anymore, Calc 3 and Mechanics Of Materials, the latter taught by the most sporadic person I've ever been forced under, and the former difficulty but not impossible.
M8s I need higher level stuff to keep interested.

I never learned the following:
Creo/CAD, MATlab, Arduino, C++, Java

I really want to get into modeling and/or simulations.

What would /sci/ reccomend I do with this new hardware, now that I'm able to run shit, for more interest in this field with stuff that is relevant?
Sorry for great wall of text.

And this is why university is a scam

I'm a chemical engineer and I never learned CAD. They focused on teaching us aspenONE hysys and matlab.

CAD is really just for civil/mech/EE isn't it?

Even the apple math and applied physics people I talk to spend most of their time in maple or matlab, not cad.

How are you gonna design the plant without CAD?
>>
>>7664448
Not my problem? I just specify process conditions, write up P&ID diagrams, and then tell the mechE guys to design the reaction vessels once start-up and steady state conditions have been determined.

Then the MechE people pass off those designs to EE and tell them not to let a power surge destroy any of the pumps or compressors.

Engineering is a team effort :3

My uni IS a fucking scam. They basically forced out the best teacher they had by not letting him run any Electrical Engineering courses. I was also forced by many groups to take a plethora of bullshit liberal arts courses which I couldn't care less about, not allowing me to learn CAD like I wanted to.
My credit loads for my first two years were 16/18 18/20. So if I wanted to take cad, it would have raised it to 22/24.

Indeed my good anon ;3 teemwork!! :D

Nice reddit slang, good to know you all are here

boomp

will be asleep for a while but pls give suggestions ;_;

what should I do with my new hardwaer
>>
>>7664433
Try to find a torrent of NX 9 or 10 and learn to use that, it's pretty much industry standard for aero CAD

NX 9 or 10? Danks m9
