defined as the process of creating an intelligent and computable 3-D data set andsharing the data among the various types of professionals within the design and construction team.BIM technology enables the designer, engineer and builder to visualize the entire scope of abuilding project in 3-D and as well as attached schedule and cost data to the 3-D model andtherefore is ideal for being able to assist improve the collaboration among project participants.Designers and builders can plan-out, in precise detail, the location and clearances needed for acomplete and successful project. Therefore, the authors’ idea was to utilize BIM technologysoftware to enhance student-learning experience as is relates to MEP coordination.MEP Coordination Laboratory

Two of the major outcomes were brainstorming and interaction among thegroups leading to innovative ideas and solutions. One of the major hurdles in this processwas the demands of time both for students and faculty alike.INTRODUCTIONThe undergraduate engineering curriculum has periodically undergone structural changesto reflect the societal needs of time and to head-start the future technological innovationsand learning/teaching cultures. Even though the traditional engineering education hasserved the nation well, nevertheless it has exhausted its effectiveness over the last twodecades because of rapid changes in technology and international trade.
