from the CMCET 691 Senior Projects course, students are required toproduce time and cost estimates then track their adherence to the proposed schedule and budget.The majority of capstone style courses in construction management programs provide thestudents with a given program, typically including a client provided design and budget. Thevariance comes when students need to mock-up prototypes of joints and assemblies in addition tothe full scale production of the project. Students working on the Transitional Disaster Sheltercompetition learned to develop a secondary budget for mock-ups that ran concurrent with themain shelter construction and schedule the mock-ups to allow time for design changes based onthe results of those mock

participants. Therefore, it isstrongly recommended that BIM should be an integral part of the CEM curriculum. Again, themain focus of these BIM modules in junior- and senior-year courses should be on possible BIMuse cases and their results, trades/systems that frequently partake in the BIM process, roles andresponsibilities of various participants in BIM operations, and management skills to facilitate theBIM process.Finally, it is recommended for CEM programs to offer a senior level BIM capstone course forstudents who are interested in learning BIM or wish to purse BIM. Once students have beenformally exposed to all aspects of BIM covered in the curriculum, BIM could be the centralfocus of a capstone project, creating an interactive and collaborative

The various implementation strategies that CM programshave employed to incorporate BIM into the curricula can be grouped into four categories:standalone courses, cross-discipline courses, capstone/project courses, and integration intoexisting courses.Introducing BIM in standalone courses is an effective approach to quickly cover

The implementation strategies include introducing BIM as standalone courses,utilizing cross-discipline BIM courses, adding BIM labs in capstone/project courses, andintegrating BIM into existing courses14.Pavelko and Chasey performed a survey of 59 construction programs that were members of theAssociated Schools of Construction (ASC) and the American Council for ConstructionEducation (ACCE).

Chances of success: Good. C. Requiring DfS on all senior capstone design projects, whether the project involves design of a system, component, or process, is an excellent approach to familiarize the students with the concepts and practical aspects of DfS (most likely in architectural, mechanical, or electrical engineering programs) or DfCS (most likely in civil, construction, or industrial engineering programs).

isclear that the need to integrate BIM exists. However, the appropriate curricular location has notbeen decided. Some have suggested that BIM be part of a first level undergraduate course whileother schools have placed it as a capstone project in their course sequence 13. In a case studyusing the capstone project to integrate BIM, many students had to learn the software alone.

Mostof the students that worked with BIM as part of the project are using BIM in their currentconstruction jobs.
