OverviewThe MSc in BIM (Building Information Modelling) and Digital Construction course is designed in response to the growth of digitalisation in the built environment, to produce pioneers who can lead and apply digital innovation to the construction industry. This Master’s degree is aimed at:Providing you with a comprehensive portfolio of creative, professional and practice-based education.Helping you to secure employment, further study and career enhancement.The course design has been influenced by the rapid development in automated processes that support different aspects within the built environment, as well as the continual demand of the commercial sector for strategies that support effective technological transformation.Improving digital competencies amongst different professionals at technical, operational, and managerial levels across the built environment sector is becoming vital. With the continual technological evolution of this sector, the demand for graduates who can competently use data and information is on the rise - especially with many emerging potentials resulting from applying areas of knowledge such as techniques from big data analytics, block-chain, and information system management strategies. We welcome professionals and graduates who with an enthusiasm for learning and real-world understanding to study this course.MSc BIM and Digital Construction is a cognate course, which means that it is designed for graduates from backgrounds including built environment, engineering, manufacturing, and computer science industry professionals. This goes hand-in-hand with the applied nature of the taught modules, which contextualise theory and practical exercises into areas where we have considerable expertise, e.g., BIM, information systems and computer science.Enhancing your employability skillsConstruction is seen as one of the top industries that rapidly is moving toward digitising its processes. Following the emergence of the fourth industrial revolution, digitalisation is recognised to be having a profound impact on the way industry works, operates and progresses.Despite the digital transformation wave, this course anticipates to engage you with multidisciplinary industries to promote innovation and enable you to gain both practical and in-depth knowledge of tools and techniques within the Digital Built Environment for solving complex project problems.Benefiting from our resources and partnership with Autodesk, you will be using software applications including Revit, Dynamo, BIM 360, and many others. Also, as BCU is recognised as an Autodesk Training Centre, you will benefit by having a free training access to one of the software applications from Autodesk.
