About this course:

This introductory course in Building Information Modeling (BIM) focuses on Autodesk's Revit Architecture as a platform for learning key principles in the application of digital media in the design and documentation of building elements within a parametric environment. Fundamental training is provided so students can progress to more advanced design computation and its application in the construction industry. Through a series of lectures and exercises, this course explores basic BIM concepts that apply to all parametrically driven CAD systems. The software tool used in this course requires a Windows Operating System.
