Responsible for the direction and development of the Centre. Facilitate knowledge exchange, research linkage opportunities and funding. The Centre secured a starting grant, the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) from the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) Malaysia with a total amount of RM 111,180.00
BIM Smart Collaborative Studio (BIM Lab)
I am responsible (and a group colleagues i.e. Dr Hasnanywati, Dr Jaki, Dr Nooriati and Dr Mariati) for the coordination, planning and development of BIM Lab. The Lab is currently under renovation.
BIM Smart Collaborative Studio (in short BIM Lab) is an innovative studio space that leverages advanced technologies to support collaborative learning and to offer an active learning approach that includes team-based learning, problem-based learning, and other collaborative pedagogies, as well as to engage student using digital tools and practices. The vision and concepts:-
- BIM Lab is a technology-enabled room that combined computer, media, and specialized software i.e. building information modelling (BIM).
- Integrated space for collaboration and engagement – human and technology.
- Flexible space to run activities e.g. class, workshop, seminar, talks, and training.
- Knowledge exchange centre for BIM, artificial intelligent (AI), virtual modelling, and cyber-physical system (CPS) in the building and construction.
