This program offers a comprehensive overview of BIM processes, from initial conception through the end of a project’s life cycle. It prepares students to tackle current and future challenges in the industry by driving digital transformation in how projects are conceived and executed. From the fundamental concepts of BIM and its applications to advanced modeling with Autodesk Revit, it equips you with the skills to create precise architectural, structural, and MEP models. This specialization enables you to use digital models for critical tasks such as project coordination, cost estimation, construction planning, health and safety management, and energy analysis. It helps you master the application of BIM methodology in every phase of design, development, and documentation generation, ensuring efficient and optimized execution. This master’s program establishes you as an expert capable of leading innovation in the construction sector, adding strategic value at every stage of the project and ensuring consistency and quality in the information generated.
Objectives
To develop a comprehensive understanding of BIM principles and their strategic application throughout the life cycle of construction projects.
Improve your modeling skills for architectural, structural, and mechanical/electrical projects using Autodesk Revit software.
Develop project coordination strategies based on digital models to optimize multidisciplinary collaboration.
Manage cost estimates and construction planning using accurate information from BIM models.
Assess the impact of BIM management on occupational safety and health by implementing preventive solutions starting in the design phase.
Analyze the energy performance of buildings using BIM models and propose improvements to enhance sustainability.
Apply BIM methodology to the design, development, and creation of technical documentation for construction projects.
Support decision-making to optimize construction processes, drawing on centralized information from the BIM environment.
Methodology
At Educa PHAROS, we use a highly practical methodology focused on the direct application of knowledge in the student’s professional environment, combining theoretical content with real-world case studies, digital tools, and the guidance of a specialized teaching team.
