Abstract: This study investigated the effectiveness of Automation Studio software in enhancing electrical engineering students’ ability to design ladder diagrams for three-phase motor control systems. Using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, 30 students participated in a four-week training program. Data were collected through competency assessments focusing on basic knowledge, component analysis, problem-solving, and system design. The results revealed significant improvements across all areas: average scores increased from 54 to 92 in basic knowledge (70%), 52 to 78 in component analysis (51%), 52 to 80 in problem-solving (54%), and 33 to 80 in system design (143%). These findings demonstrate the software’s capacity to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, fostering critical thinking and technical proficiency. This research highlights the potential of simulation-based learning tools like Automation Studio to enhance engineering education, equipping students with industry-relevant skills and preparing them for complex technological challenges.
