Student alsocommented positively on their own personal growth in assignments submitted to the museum.Though we have not tracked them officially, we believe that most of the first year’s graduateshave joined STEM programs.Background:The demands of academic science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programsmay dull students’ enthusiasm and destroy their academic self-concept (ASC) and confidence.However, the popularity of science museums around the world is a notable testament to

Previous research has revealed thatmost of the BIM courses offered in CM programs have mainly focused on 3D modeling skills aswell as BIM applications in 4D scheduling and 5D estimating. While these topics appear to beimportant to apply BIM technology, students will not be able to fully understand the BIMprocess in a construction project without knowing the fundamental workflow
