Why choose Building Information Modelling Management and Integrated Digital Delivery MSc/PGDip at Middlesex?
The construction sector is a major part of the UK economy and any centrally procured project is required to comply with Building Information Modelling (BIM) and its current global standards. This is the process of creating and managing construction information through a project's life cycle with higher efficiencies in workflows and processes using Technology and Integrated Digital Delivery as a catalyst.
We are one of the first institutions in the world to offer a work-based Building Information Modelling programme. This master's degree is specifically designed to meet the current shortage of high-quality graduate professionals by developing their skillsets in managing projects, global teams, and organisations in the efficient technical, operational and strategic coordination of processes, workflows, people, assets and state-of-the art technologies that BIM requires.
Our programme won bronze in the Hong BIM Awards 2023. The programme is one of the first MSc programmes globally, structured in all its modules to perfectly align with all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. Our perspective of BIM Management is an overarching umbrella that includes within it design, construction, information, project, supply chain and sustainability/circularity management.
The course is for experienced professionals who manage BIM projects including architects, architectural technologists, construction and civil engineers, mechanical, electrical and plumbing services (MEP) engineers, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) engineers, technicians, contractors, subcontractors, fabricators and manufacturers, Facilities and operations managers (FM & OM) and quantity surveyors.
Students on this course are often in full-time employment and you can study around your work and home commitments. You can finish the course in 12 months with the full-time study option or over two years with the part-time distance learning.
You can study the full MSc or the PGDip where you study two modules out of three for an MSc.

Alumni testimonial
"I won the award for Excellence in BIM Implementation on behalf of my company. Since I am personally in charge of BIM implementation and managing all aspects of BIM it gives me a lot of energy going forward. Although I started the BIM implementation process in 2008, I must say this course helped me a lot in structuring the workflow and finally recognizing through an award!
Currently, BIM has not fully captured the Middle Eastern market. Although technology has advanced, the skills gap and lack of direction of standards remain an issue in the market. As I am an international student from the Middle East where BIM awareness is currently low and confusing multiple standards and practices are followed, I had to struggle initially till I joined this course. But within the first quarter of the course, I have managed to get a good insight into structured BIM management and its professional application. Now I have started to put into practice what I learnt from this course."
