Abstract

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is now becoming a widespread all over the world. In Egypt, starting from the mid 2000's, BIM was introduced as a new technology that eases the opportunity of collaborating and sharing information through intelligent modelling in the Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. Going in depth into the Architectural design education in universities, undergraduate students lack understanding BIM knowledge, practice and process application throughout their academic years till graduation. Thus, this research aims to conclude guidelines for integrating BIM as a process into the design studios for the next architecture students' generation. These guidelines may enhance the architecture design process through BIM thinking process. Students would further graduate as BIM-Based to meet the career requirements needed after graduation. BIM and its process will be focused in an in-depth literature review in addition to discussing the traditional architecture design process in design studios. International case studies will address the universities' experiences upon BIM's integration in the design studios. Finally, questionnaires were held amongst students to identify their perception upon the integration of BIM as a process. To conclude, a comparison between both the traditional design process and the BIM process in design will be deducted to accomplish BIM integration guidelines into architecture the design studios.
