The Advanced BIM Master’s Program in the Design and Execution of Linear Projects is a strategic specialization for civil engineering professionals seeking to update and deepen their knowledge of digital construction methodologies and virtual modeling. This program addresses the technological evolution that is redefining the infrastructure sector, where Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) and BIM methodology are essential for competitiveness and operational efficiency. You will specialize in the integration of BIM throughout all phases of an infrastructure’s life cycle, from initial conception through handover and maintenance. You will master the application of international standards such as ISO 19650, which is crucial for managing BIM information in complex collaborative environments. You will develop advanced skills in key software, including Civil3D, for modeling and data management in BIM projects for linear infrastructure. You will learn to establish BIM-GIS interoperability workflows and to use point clouds for creating BIM models, optimizing decision-making and resolving technical challenges. This master’s program prepares you to lead the digital transformation in transportation, water resources, and port projects, ensuring precise execution and highly efficient project management, thereby solidifying your role as a leader in infrastructure digitization.
Objectives
• You will integrate Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology into the entire life cycle of linear infrastructure projects. • You will master the use of advanced software, such as Civil3D, for modeling and simulating complex infrastructure. • You will establish BIM•GIS interoperability workflows in collaborative environments, ensuring efficient information management. • You will apply the international ISO 19650 standard for standardization and quality in project data management. • You will design Digital Construction (VDC) implementation strategies to optimize the design and execution of transportation, hydraulic, and port infrastructure projects. • You will evaluate the impact of BIM and VDC solutions on the efficiency, sustainability, and profitability of linear construction projects. • You will lead the digital transformation in civil engineering projects, managing teams and processes for the implementation of advanced solutions.
