License Definitions and Details

Licenses are leased as concurrent use licenses within the campus wide pool.

The Concurrent Use License (CUL) may be installed on multiple machines but a license server will regulate the usage to the number of licenses leased. A CUL requires an internet connection to the license server in order to operate. One CUL license allows you to run one job across up to 4 cores. To run across more cores, requires HPC licenses.

The Ansys Teaching licenses offered here are for instructional purposes for use by students working on a class assignment or capstone project.

Using Ansys available through this program for commercial purposes is expressly excluded.

Note: Licenses available through this program renew annually each June. Each annual license will terminate and the software included in this program will stop operating after expiration of the subscription term unless renewed by the user.
