(LEVEL 6) Funding Option Available
Apply online: www.springboardcourses.ie Building Information Modelling (BIM) is fast becoming the global industry standard for designing, procuring, constructing and managing buildings and infrastructure projects. The digitisation of building components and performance data, coupled with the use of collaborative tools and internationally agreed standards, have been associated with reduced costs and improved outcomes on projects worldwide. This 10-credit special purpose award is designed to act as a foundation for BIM adoption by those employed in the built environment related professions. Participants will be given the skills needed to create and engage with building information models and digital building data. The collaborative nature of the course will support the engagement of those operating in the fields of building design (architecture, civil and structural engineering, mechanical and electrical services, quantity surveying), building construction, related product manufacturing and facilities management.
Entry Requirements Applicants must hold an NFQ level 6 qualification in construction studies or related discipline OR a minimum of 2 years’ experience in construction project-related work such as drawing production, measurement or similar activity (CAD experience would be beneficial but is not a prerequisite for this course). The University’s policy in relation to recognition of prior learning (RPL) also applies.
Modules • Building Information Modelling (BIM) with Revit
Progression Opportunities On successful completion of the programme students will have gained 10 credits at NFQ level 6 which may contribute to the achievement of other academic awards.
Cost The course will focus on the use of Autodesk Revit to generate model data and will take advantage of associated software packages and platforms to co-ordinate multiple disciplines in a common data environment (CDE). Practical activities are supplemented by live and recorded lectures, allowing participants to grow their understanding of BIM practice.
Fees do not apply to applicants who meet the funding criteria under the Springboard+ initiative (see https:// springboardcourses.ie/eligibility). For applicants who do not meet the Springboard+ eligibility criteria the fee is €580.
The content of the course is offered entirely online, further supporting the participant’s development in the use of collaborative tools. On completion, the successful candidate will be capable of generating BIM content and of participating in critical BIM processes using internationally agreed structures and procedures.
