Abstract

Building Information Modeling (BIM) has won rapid acceptance in the AEC industry around the world, especially in China over recent years. The popularity of BIM will involve more new talents in the surveying industry and will simultaneously make demands on the surveying teaching in universities and colleges. This paper presents an overview on experiences and lessons learned during the introduction of BIM in construction management education and training. It illustratively shows that the introduction of BIM allows educators to design new teaching methods that use more realistic cases, supporting students with learning how to apply different formal project management methods to real-world project management problems. Some suggestions will be put forward to improve the current surveying education.
