Building Information Modeling
Course Description

The course is a digital-oriented and practical course that aims to familiarize students with the concept of Building Information Modelling (BIM); mainly, the students will be introduced to the concept of BIM and how its components are different from other previously learned platforms like CAD. Students will learn how to model both conceptual and detailed interior design models and how they can generate the required documentation out of their designs. By the end of this course, students will be able to model different design families and make presentations with colored plans and elevations and place them into well-designed technical sheets. They should also be able to estimate their building material requirements and make the required BOQ. The course will offer students better chances to design more accurate and detailed interior spaces that can respond to the up-to-date requirements of the industry.
