Article Abstract:
Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology has emerged from being an innovative approach to one of the most important tools in product design and development. Recent developments include the use of 3D CAD data to drive rapid prototyping equipment and the use of Engineering Data Management systems to control computerized information from a design to manufacturing project. The market for various CAD/CAM software and services has seen significant growth in the last few years, with a total of 235 million pounds sterling in end-user expenditure in 1994.

Article Abstract:
Engineering remains a popular desired profession among young people in the UK, according to the 1997 'Graduate Careers' survey from High Fliers Research. This is the case for both graduates and those seeking employment without undertaking further study. Graduates expect an average starting salary of 16,100 pounds sterling, rising to 29,500 pounds sterling within five years. Many electrical and electronic engineering firms are finding it hard to recruit suitable employees, especially those with information technology skills.
