The application of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a Reinforced Concrete course through the development of a real-life civil engineering project from its conception, as a coursework, is a challenged experience for students. As long as the coursework evolves, students develop real ways to think as an engineer and they work in an environment similar…

Framework for Rating Higher Education Construction Programs in the US: Perspective of Administrators
Direct linkGhosh, Somik; Bigelow, Ben; Johnston, Jonathan – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2023
Ranking systems are readily available and offer a simplistic way to differentiate among universities. However, end-users are not informed about the criteria and methods used to develop the ranking systems. Whereas ranking systems are used by prospective students, their lack of reliability and transparency outweigh their benefits. There are a few…

Hamad Aljassmi; Babitha Philip; Mohammad Issam Younes – Advances in Engineering Education, 2025
Construction planning is vital to civil engineering projects, involving task coordination, resource estimation, and risk assessment. Traditional educational methods in Engineering management courses frequently lack real-world feedback, hindering understanding of students. To bridge this gap, this study aims to propose an educational approach…

Claudia Calle Müller; Piyush Pradhananga; Mohamed ElZomor – International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 2024
Purpose: The built environment is responsible for approximately 40% of the world's energy consumption, 30% of raw material use, 25% of solid waste, 25% of water use, 12% of land use and 33% of greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, environmental improvement and decarbonization are becoming increasingly critical objectives for the construction industry.…

Ulrika Uotila; Kimmo Keskiniva; Juha-Matti Junnonen; Arto Saari – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
To respond to construction industry-specific requirements for civil engineers, university teachers need to provide opportunities for students to develop their generic and professional skills. This article describes the use of a novel intervention of project-based learning -- PjBL with the consultative approach -- to teach Lean Construction and the…

Santos, José; Escórcio, Patrícia – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2022
Building Information Modelling (BIM) has changed the way many civil engineers organise and execute their job in recent years. Many universities around the world have been adapting their curricula to include BIM education. However, this adaptation has been incomplete, occurring only in a small number of subjects. To fill this gap, this paper…
