Acquire the necessary skills for the generation of BIM models for the disciplines of Architecture, Structures and Facilities.

A genuine experience that helps the students to gain a global vision,
enriching this way the general experience and encouraging professional development within an increasingly competitive global market.

BIM enables professionals to coordinate data about a project from design through construction and operation.

A BIM project models all data relating to design, costs, safety, clash detection, scheduling, sustainability and efficient facilities management factors used among a shareable platform between architects, engineers, owners and builders.

Master’s Final Thesis

arrow-bim-360-200x20

The Final Master’s Thesis is a real project simulation-based exercise that is carried out using Open BIM approach. From the very beginning of the Master’s, working on the Final Thesis will allow the students to apply all the knowledge acquired during the study sessions. The purpose is to demonstrate how an Open BIM workflow can advance an integrated project, producing all deliverables of a real Building Project, and how it enhances the project development compared to traditional methods. This exercise becomes a suitable environment to simulate an integrated project delivery throughout the life cycle of the project to interact with the whole team from the beginning, exchanging information and feedback at every cycle.
For the development of this project the students will have to fulfill the deliverables for the different stages of a real project that actually matches with the training program:
STAGE 1: DESIGN
STAGE 2: CONSTRUCTION
STAGE 3: HANDOVER, CLOSEOUT
