construction process. Usually,employers in the construction industry expect new employees to have a better capacity on newtechnologies. It is crucial that students in construction engineering programs have an opportunityto learn about the most current technologies that are used in the construction industry. BuildingInformation Modeling (BIM) is one of such technologies and has obviously been used by theconstruction industry. With BIM, the traditionally used two-dimensional (2D) drawings in theconstruction industry is replaced with a data-embedded three-dimensional (3D) model that candirectly generate lists of materials, quantity take-offs, preliminary schedules and of course the 2Ddrawings if necessary, working together with other computer software 1

Yet social justice has never been prominent in these reports. Howeverin the 21st Century a different picture is emerging. As one author wrote in a recent book [7]: “…students are increasingly recognizing that engineering has become the path to a comfortable life, but perhaps not necessarily the path to a good one.
