I hate to have to disagree. AutoCAD is a great program, and has its uses. I would, however, reccomend inventor to FIRST students simply because all teams have free access to it.
For many things, AutoCAD is actually the prefered method. Inventor is a great modeling program, but AutoCAD is primarily a 2D application and a great one at that. You cannot even really compare the two. I'll stop there. It has been covered already here.
