| dc.description.abstract | As the construction industry increasingly adopts digital technologies, integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM) into engineering education becomes crucial for preparing students to contribute effectively in a knowledge-based society. This paper outlines a strategic initiative by the Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) to incorporate BIM into its undergraduate civil engineering curriculum. The initiative aims to align academic outcomes with industry demands by introducing students to essential BIM tools and practices from the outset of their education. This phased approach ensures progressive learning, from foundational concepts to advanced applications, enhancing the quality and sustainability of engineering education. By fostering a deep understanding of BIM, the curriculum is expected to improve students' professional readiness, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and encourage innovation in sustainable design and construction practices. The initiative underscores the role of BIM in advancing a resilient and adaptive educational framework that meets the challenges of contemporary and future construction environments. This paper details the curriculum integration process, pedagogical strategies, and preliminary feedback, setting the stage for a broader discussion on transforming engineering education through technology. | en_US |
