تقنية BIM كأداة تطبيقية في مناهج التصميم الشامل ؛ لتقليص الفجوة بين الدراسة الأكاديمية و الواقع المهني لمادة التصميم المعماري

Abstract EN

Connecting architectural education to practice market is the optimal goal of developing it, to graduate a qualified architect.

Time factor in this process is considered as obstruction in achieving goals and determining the accuracy of results; as the inputs' time of developing process in the undergraduate study differs from outputs' in the practice market.

This requires continues and instantaneous monitoring process for practicing standards to be applied academically, in particular, for architectural design curriculum.

Architectural design in the undergraduate study is the major curriculum, while in practice market ; it is an operation of projects' comprehensive design.

By the beginning of the twenty-first century; bim technology showed remarkable success in global practicing to support the architectural practice professionally and academically.

This could be utilized academically in teaching process.

But the architectural design curriculum cannot be compromised; it is based on a wide range of knowledge that support the architect's skills.

Therefore, the research suggested the development of a new curriculum "comprehensive design", to be an applied subject that achieves a holistic architectural design concept professionally and academically.

The optimal result is achieving a positive reciprocal effect between undergraduate study and architectural practice.

In addition, it seeks to convert the traditional education methods into advanced computational one, without any negative impact on the academic standards inside architectural educational institutions.
