Abstract:Building information modeling (BIM) is a key technology for the digitization of smart city infrastructure. Its lack of talent has severely restricted the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry and the construction of smart cities. However, the existing BIM courses and teaching system are mainly aimed at architectural design and construction management. They can’t meet the needs of the country, the industry and the market for BIM compound talents combining “building + city” with the new generation information technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence. Therefore, this article has established a teaching platform for BIM technology and designed a comprehensive teaching scheme for BIM applications oriented to big data and artificial intelligence. The teaching platform and scheme have been practiced in the national first-class major—building electricity and intelligence. Students’ course experience is good, the purpose of improving BIM teaching level has achieved, and it can provide reference for the cultivation of BIM compound talents in similar majors.
