. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 Integrating Building Information Modeling in Existing Courses: A Systematic Framework for Undergraduate Construction Management ProgramsAbstractAs Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been employed more widely in the constructionindustry for the last several years, industry expectations of BIM knowledge for constructionmanagement (CM) students has emerged and kept increasing. As a result, BIM education in CMprograms has been given more emphases, and a number of CM programs in the U.S. haveincorporated BIM contents in their curriculum through various strategies. While recent studieshave suggested that integrating BIM into existing CM courses is

The problem addressed in this study was to identify the need for a trainingprogram specifically addressing cost engineering, planning/scheduling and estimatingand to develop and evaluate a single module of a basic project control curriculumoverview and outline. A commercial model to support the development of a cross-training program for project control personnel was also outlined. Questionnaires weredistributed to 20 senior construction Project Management personnel to perform a needsassessment for this training program, to cross-train personnel with skills and informationbetween elements of project control.

So, it is logical to teach construction students in a group environment. Also, mostconstruction students have natural talents to learn effectively in an applied atmosphere.
