that you will face in the real world. Learning how to figure out what information is important, how to frame a problem, what simplifications are needed, and what still needs to be learned are critical to your success in engineering. The good news: research shows that you can develop this deeper understanding through collaborating with peers to better understand and innovate solutions to real-‐world problems. I hope you take full advantage of this way of learning in EGR 270 to be creative, have fun and expand your mind. What Will You Learn in EGR 270? EGR 270 has three intended learning outcomes.

materials and constructiondetails required for scheduling the construction process. Moreover, different users with variedbackground can collaborate together on one BIM model of a building 16. Students can learn aboutthe architectural design features with BIM in addition to engineering and construction processes,so there is a need for research and development of educational methods supported by BIM andrelated technologies15.Traditionally the construction sequence is taught by using 2D drawings and critical path method(CPM) bar charts. Students find more success when they are able to visualize and conceptualizethe construction sequence in their minds using 3D models to correlate the relationships betweendifferent components and schedule activities
