About the Course

Overview

Are you looking to transition or advance your career in the Built Environment (BE) industry?

As the BE sector continues to embrace digitalization, there is a growing need for professionals who are skilled in Computation Building Information Modelling (BIM). Computation BIM involves the use of advanced software and programming languages to automate and optimise BIM workflows across a building lifecycle, enabling more efficient and accurate building design, construction and maintenance.

The SkillsFuture Career Transition Programmes (SCTP) in Computational Design (Built Environment) aims to equip individuals with the necessary skills to leverage Computational BIM to improve project process and outcome. It will enable individuals to stay ahead of the curve and acquire the knowledge and skills to succeed in this rapidly evolving field.

Objectives

Upon completion of the programme, you will be able to:

use basic coding to customize BIM programmes and improve productivity
use computational tools to automate, optimize and benchmark processes within a building lifecycle

This will adequately equip you to pursue a career as a Specialist in Digital Delivery.
