For the most part, you can use the <<System Requirements>> however, I would recommend the following:

Processor: Intel i7 3.2Ghz

Graphics Card: NVIDIA Quadro 2000M or 3000M

Minimum? Anything with an i3 processor, 4Gig RAM, no special video card and a harddrive larger than 256Gig. There is no magic to it.

Hi @Anonymous,

Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

Please make sure that your students understand that minimum means just that and is not likely to provide a very speedy or efficient or happy experience for AutoCAD users.  Here is the list of current AutoCAD 2017 System-requirements

Hello

Welcome to the Autodesk / AutoCAD Forums !

1) Please try to get (if possible) 8 Gb Ram ! It's important because Win 7/8/10 can use up to 2 Gb Ram ...

2) A fast Core i3 can be "enough"

3) The basic graphic card integrated inside the Core i3/i5/i7 can be "enough" 

Theses specifications are for small/medium 2D projects and small 3D projects ...
