Abstract

With the advancement of construction industry informatization, BIM technology has become a core driving force for the transformation of the construction industry. National policies explicitly support its development, creating an urgent industry demand for BIM talents with both theoretical and practical capabilities. However, current university BIM courses suffer from issues such as outdated teaching methods, weak practical components, single assessment methods, and a lack of teaching content focused on BIM technology development and innovative application. This paper proposes a teaching reform scheme based on the integration of industry, education, and competitions (I-E-C integration). Guided by industry service and leveraging academic competitions, the reform plan integrates industry needs and real competition tasks into teaching, implements stratified talent cultivation, and enhances teacher training. Teaching practice shows that this model has significant effects in enhancing student initiative and sense of achievement, optimizing teaching content, and improving the evaluation system. The college has achieved excellent results in major competitions, and students' adaptation period in their jobs has noticeably shortened. This model provides a new practical paradigm for BIM talent cultivation, potentially supplying the construction industry with interdisciplinary talents possessing both hard skills in software operation and soft literacy in engineering collaboration.
