Affordable, high-performance workstation innovations together with industry-standard software for the engineers, designers, and digital media leaders of the future.

Partners in quality and educationHigh-performance HP Z Workstations are developed hand-in-hand with the application software companies that professionals—from artists and designers to engineers and scientists—use every day, providing highly reliable performance that lets you keep the focus on education, research, and development. Through in-depth quality assurance, testing, and product engineering discipline, HP has built a reputation for delivering outstanding product quality.

HP and AutodeskAutodesk designs software, curriculums, and learning resources for students and educators that support the advancement of design education. From building information modeling (BIM) to digital prototyping and digital entertainment creation, Autodesk technology is used by design professionals around the world, helping them drive industry trends.

Autodesk applications are thoroughly tested and qualified on HP Workstations, and HP offers the only workstations with the official AutoCAD certification label. In addition, Autodesk has standardized a variety of its systems business on HP Workstations. This close relationship, coupled with HP’s engineering expertise, provides the right combination of innovation, reliability, and performance to support education needs for years to come.

New HP Z Workstations and HP Performance Monitors provide the ideal platform for students of design, digital arts, engineering and architecture, as well as anyone who needs to handle complex digital content and files, including life-like immersive 3D environments. Together with resources and certified applications from Autodesk, you get a powerful workstation solution built to take on today’s performance challenges.

HP Z200 SFF for workstation performance in a small form factorFor space-constrained environments, the new HP Z200 Small Form Factor (SFF) Workstation is an ideal solution that puts the performance and reliability of a workstation into a surprisingly small package— at a surprisingly affordable price. About one-third the size of an HP Z200 Workstation, the HP Z200 SFF provides next-generation processor and memory technologies, delivering reliable productivity and a compact design that you can use as a desktop or tower.

HP Z Workstations are a family of next-generation workstation solutions that take innovation, performance, and reliability to the next level. With a model for every need and budget, HP also offers a range of affordable HP Z200 and HP Z400 Workstations and the maximum computing power of the HP Z600 and the HP Z800 Workstations.

HP Performance Monitors: The New HP ZR MonitorsHP Performance Monitors are best-in-class with ultra-wide viewing angles and standard 8-way adjustable comfort ergonomics. The new HP ZR monitors feature 85% power supply efficiency1 and enhanced connectivity from DisplayPort, DVI, and built-in USB ports. The HP ZR22w 21.5-inch IPS monitor is ENERGY STAR® 5.0 qualified, has earned a Gold rating from EPEAT®2 and is TCO Certified Displays 5.0, so you can be confident that you have chosen responsible IT equipment. HP ZR monitors are tested on HP Workstations with workstation-class graphics to ensure maximum compatibility and performance.

A smart combination for the classroom, lab, and beyond

Real-world engineering and design applications often require advanced graphics capability, processing power, and multitasking ability. HP certifies workstation applications with Independent Software Vendors (ISVs)—a key reason to purchase a workstation instead of a high-end desktop. HP Z Workstations let students, educators, and researchers accomplish more and do it much faster than desktop PC solutions—at a comparable price.

HP Performance AdvisorHP Performance Advisor is an HP Workstation software wizard with helpful advice on recommended settings and performance. In addition to helping maximize hardware, applications, and memory, HP Performance Advisor can give your students an understanding about how applications use the processor, memory, graphics, disk, and networks. Learning how to size workstations for complex digital content and file applications helps students become better prepared for the future.

Inspire your students with Autodesk Design Academy and Education SuitesHP Workstations are the internal product development standard throughout Autodesk, which supports the integration of technology and current trends with design education through industry-specific technology suites that encourage multi-disciplinary learning. Curriculums, learning resources, forums, and much more are available for educators and students on the Education Community (http://students.autodesk.com).

With Autodesk Design Academy, secondary students can explore careers in architecture, engineering, and design using the same 2D and 3D software and tools employed by professionals worldwide. Autodesk Education Suites for post-secondary education help students hone the design and engineering skills integral to professional industry careers.
