75.0% agreement fromArchitecture students and 66.7% from CM students. These findings underscore the sharedappreciation for the perceived benefits of integrating BIM with SD in both Architecture andConstruction Management education.Results and DiscussionsThe students' viewpoints on the open-answer question provide opinions on improving theprogram's curriculum and the integration of BIM with SD. Most respondents expressed positivesentiments, believing BIM is crucial to achieving effective and SD. The general tone ofcomments is positive, with descriptors such as “great,” “fun,” and “helpful” recurring frequently.Comments indicate that BIM is an efficient tool that enhances the realism and efficiency ofdesign concepts. However, some students

commitment to lifelong learning. Aligningcurriculum and instructional practices with the program's PEOs ensures that students acquire theknowledge, skills, and attributes necessary to achieve these outcomes and excel in their careers.Course IntroductionThe understudy course is sophomore level, Writing Intensive (W-intensive), a requiredengineering course. The course introduces architectural engineering as an academic program ofstudy and career choice, covering the analysis, integration, and application of the engineeringdesign process to solve problems associated with the design and operation of building systems.As a core curriculum requirement for all AREN degree-seeking students, the course also coverscommunication of solutions to technical

coursework. Thereare strong arguments on both sides of this debate. Some believe that the use of artificial intelligenceto complete coursework is an academic integrity violation and should not be used, while othersbelieve artificial intelligence can be used ethically and within academic integrity standards to be aresource for students. And of course, there are academics that stand somewhere in between. Thelack of clarity on the use of AI in the classroom and the disjointed opinions among professors, evenwithin the same college or university, has led to confusion among students on whether ChatGPT istaboo or a powerful tool. To try and understand whether students that are majoring in ArchitecturalEngineering should be introduced to AI Chatbots, a

for accreditation as an architectural engineering program.Students must be design-capable in one area, application able in a second area and comprehendthe last two curriculum areas. In addition to having a curriculum to support all four areas, ABETaccredited architectural engineering program graduates should be able to “discuss… architecturaldesign and history” [7].Table 1: Summary of Accredited Programs Bach.

The quizzes must have simple questions, and when quizzes require more algebraic manipulation, the professor supports the student's task.The following scopes and limitations will be considered: Limitation: The comparative courses are courses in civil engineering structures in the Bachelor of Civil Engineering. Limitation: The proposed indicators for assessing the proposed teaching methodology used an internal teacher assessment named ECOA, which stands for its Spanish acronym, Student Opinion Survey. Limitation: Using the ECOA’s metric, it is understood that it is a mixed set of metrics that include course satisfaction, teaching effectiveness, learning outcomes achievement, curriculum relevance, engagement and

emissionsalone [1]. This is a large percentage, which is why green roofs are such an up-and-coming designdecision for new buildings. As the use of green roofs becomes more prevalent, an evaluation ofthe benefits and challenges may be something architectural engineering programs choose toincorporate into their curriculum. This paper aims to consider the particular challenge of addedweight to a roof structure, with the understanding that the addition of structural material tosupport this load must be considered alongside operational energy benefits that a green roofprovides. In addition, the research herein provides a methodological framework for evaluatingthe efficacy of energy-saving strategies in general, including relevant software tools
