points of Smart City developmentinitiatives is the drive for electricity efficiency, can be achieved through advanced data analytics,Internet of Things (IoT) systems, and energy-efficient construction technologies. Despite thepotential of Smart City technologies, contemporary educational programs in ConstructionManagement (CM), Civil Engineering (CE), and Architecture often lack inclusive training in theseadvanced, data-driven procedures. Traditional curricula focus principally on functional andstructural design, materials science, finance and project execution, leaving a gap in the integrationof energy optimization methods and smart infrastructure resolutions. Addressing this gap requiresa reimagined approach to education that includes courses
