| dc.description.abstract | With limited time and minimal skill sets of students at the community college, it is challenging to integrate new course material into a two-year degree or technical certificate in Building Construction Management while maintaining course structure that the construction and related industries value. This paper studies the feasibility of adding BIM components to the Building Construction Management program at Rock Valley College. Research was conducted through development of a pilot BIM course, surveys of industry and educational professionals, and a review of post-secondary institution. After studying the current state of BIM education in the United States, literature and survey data were analyzed. Analysis suggests that the program can incorporate BIM topics into course material. This inclusion of BIM skills will assist with successful student placement into the construction industry. The regional construction market is ready to embrace BIM technology. Study limitations are further discussed in the paper. | en_US |
