Building Information Modelling Management and Integrated Digital Delivery MSc

Overview
The construction sector is a major part of the UK economy and any centrally procured project will require Business Information Modelling (BIM) compliance. Yet there is a shortage of well qualified graduates who are capable of the efficient coordination of processes, workflows, people, assets and technology that BIM requires. This Masters degree was designed to meet that demand.

Why study MSc/PGDip/PGCert Building Information Modelling Management and Integrated Digital Delivery* at Middlesex University?
BIM is a process involving the structured sharing and coordination of digital and non-digital information about a building project throughout its entire lifecycle, from design to procurement, construction and operation and management stage, all the way through to demolishment.
