Exploring the Obstacles to Building Information Modeling (BIM) Implementation in Bangladeshi Higher Education
Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: In today's world, construction education's pedagogic approaches are evolving. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is one example of how information technologies impact architectural education. In the last several years, the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) has risen dramatically across the developing world. However, various limitations have been identified limiting the technology's full potential. The lack of BIM courses in higher education has been cited as an impediment. Several institutions throughout the globe already offer BIM courses, and many more are in the process of incorporating BIM into their curriculum. The majority of institutions are unaware of the significance of BIM applications, BIM teaching strategies, and plans to overcome BIM integration challenges. Similarly, Bangladesh has a growing need for BIM to be integrated into the higher education system to provide students with the necessary knowledge and abilities to operate in a BIM environment. This study will use a mixed-method research approach to explore the condition of BIM in Bangladeshi higher education, identify significant hurdles to its acceptance, and highlight specific recommendations that will improve BIM implementation in the higher education system.
