Abstract
The major objective of the paper is to widen the appreciation of computers in engineering, particularly those aspects of computer-aided design, analysis and draughting. No apology is made for keeping the scope to the basic fundamentals of computer hardware and software. Attention has been given to what can be achieved within a budget, together with the advantages/disadvantages of micro, mini or mainframe computer facilities in an engineering environment.
