The course serves as a dynamic sampling of the multiple disciplines necessary to create or modify the Built Environment. Discussions based on lectures presented by various educators, researchers, and practitioners; experts in their fields will provide students with a broadened perspective, which will help foster critical thinking and provide a more expansive view of the Built Environment.

Presents advanced topics in architectural and construction-focused CAD in a problem-based environment. Topics covered are: 3D modeling, digital fabrication, parametric building design, Building Information Modeling (BIM), material takeoff, building-energy analysis and planning, laser scanning, rendering and presentation. This course provides a thorough introduction into Autodesk Revit and covers applied topics in Trimble SketchUp, both industry-standard software in the AEC field. Basic previous CAD knowledge (e.g. in AutoCAD, SketchUp) is expected (e.g. from BCT 320 or a similar course).

The Associated Schools of Construction (ASC) Competition can provide a non-traditional learning environment for students and enhance their learning. Many students in the U.S. have various opportunities for intercollegiate students' competition to apply their knowledge to real-world problems. ASC holds regional competitions in which the construction companies are the sponsors. Many programs in the U.S. send teams for the ASC competitions, and the students can learn through the competitions. Proposals are submitted to a group of construction company executives who act as judges.
