Modernization of Construction Educational Programs Taking Into Account Building Information Modeling Technologies

Abstract

— The global processes and their impact on the construction industry and construction education are discussed. The goals and objectives of the digital transformation of construction are discussed. It is noted that building information modeling is one of the ways of digitalization and modernization of construction. Modernization of construction educational programs is considered. The main requirements for the content of educational programs at the present stage of development of digital technologies in construction are analyzed. When creating a professional educational program, it is necessary to take into account the requirements of employers and professional standards. Currently, there are no professional standards related to building information modeling. The experience of competence formation in the field of building information modeling is considered. It is proposed to take into account the principles of the international initiative CDIO when developing the educational program. The scheme of the main factors influencing the formation of the educational program is presented. Digital competences that are necessary for building information modeling are formulated. Definitions of competences for the project of professional standard and for the educational standard in the field of construction are offered.
