Introduction to the Program

You will learn how to delve deeper into the BIM concept and make the decision on which commercial software to use"

The BIM methodology basically consists of the creation of a collaborative work platform that allows all the actors involved in the road project to have coherent and grouped information available.

BIM must be implemented in the different phases of the road. In construction, it is usually simpler as it does not start from a pre-existing information structure. For this reason, we devoted detailed attention to the implementation of the BIM methodology in an infrastructure already in service, something that is particularly new in this type of study.

Since the use of BIM has a greater background in other types of infrastructures, a specific topic has been included that addresses this knowledge in order to facilitate the student's learning process through the observation of other experiences.

In the last block, which contains three units, the student will delve deeper into the concepts of the digital twin, awaken interest in other skills that highway professionals should have, such as the use of databases, programming concepts centered on Python, or Big Data techniques. Finally, the block reviews the main 3D visualization technologies such as 3D printing, virtual reality/augmented reality or point cloud.

As it is a 100% online Postgraduate Certificate, it provides the student with the ease of being able to take it comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in accordance with the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a highly demanded area such as road construction. 

Highways are an indispensable part of the transportation network, both for people and goods. These transportation routes have been indispensable since the origins of civilization, since they encourage the progress of peoples” 

This Postgraduate certificate in BIM for Roads contains the most complete and up-to-date syllabus on the market. The most important features of the program include:

Study a Postgraduate Certificate on BIM in roads

CAD is a well-known tool within the world of architecture that has long facilitated the design of 2D and 3D plans. The advancement of both knowledge in construction and in the digital media environment, soon showed the limitations of the program. Fortunately there are complementary alternatives: BIM (Building Information Modeling), a multidimensional methodology that integrates elements such as time and costs into its databases, as well as helping to reduce conflicts, provide a detailed design vision and improve productivity. Throughout our Postgraduate Certificate we will deepen you in the management of this system with a full focus on highway construction. The syllabus, broken down into ten thematic units, covers everything from project documentation to new technologies such as 3D printing. If you aspire to make your name synonymous with unbeatable infrastructures, take heart and find out why we have the largest online Faculty of Engineering in the world.
