BIM has been discussed widely for enabling collaboration in AEC
professions. Its widespread benefits from efficiency to sustainability in design
and construction converted it into a primary tool in most AEC education
institutions in the last decade. However, Turkey, like a part of the central
Europe, remains hesitant in this concern. The majority of schools of
architecture have conventional curricula based on fragmented areas of
expertise studied separately with disconnected contents, teaching methods,
and requirements. This separation not only prevents the students from
building links between different contents of sustainable design, but also
increases their work load while decreasing their creative potential. Regarding
the necessity for collaboration in the growing complexity of built
environments, underdeveloped skills in building links between fragmented
data bases is eventually becoming a serious problem. After scrutinizing the
fragmented curricula of the schools of architecture in Turkey, in comparison
with the integral examples from around the globe, the potentiality of a BIM
based transformation is going to be discussed. In order to build a strategy to
redesign a curriculum of integration, apparent obstacles and potentials are
going to be evaluated, with example cases for the use of BIM as a medium to
include environmental and structural information in the design solutions from
the second and third year students of architecture at Başkent University. This
study is expected to demonstrate how provoking the skill to employ BIM can
be to integrate creative educational experience in architecture, at the center of
which remains the design studio. The discussion concludes by suggesting
pathways to catch up with the growing gap between the global evolutions of
interdisciplinary and integral design thinking through the use of BIM in AEC
education.
