practical application. This methodology bridgesthe gap between learning and real-world decision-making, preparing future engineers andproject managers with essential skills for BIM implementation.IntroductionIn previous years, BIM (building information modeling) research and applications havepredominantly been associated with six main areas according to current trends in researchdatabases (see analysis in Appendix 1): 1. Built environmental technology, energy efficiency, and BIM technology (including blockchain, virtual, and augmented reality). 2. Construction management and industrial applications of BIM (including blockchain, geographical information systems (GIS) and facilities management) 3. Structural systems (design and

failure in some organizations when they try toimplement abrupt changes [4-9].In the case of Engineering courses that can be difficult for the students and professors due theircomplexity, some efforts can be done to include the latest technologies to motivate new generations andkeep their attention throughout the course. In some cases it could be easier to convince the students thatchanges are necessary than convincing traditional professors or instructors [10].In this work we present a series of changes implemented to the way courses of Applied Mechanicswere taught to students of two main programs: Civil Engineering and Architecture students. Thesecourses are part of their curricula and have to be taken between the third and fifth semester of
