Who Should Attend

Specialist Diploma in Computational BIM (Building) - This Specialist Diploma Programme is designed for all professionals in the built environment sector who are keen to use computational methods for building projects.

Assessment & Award

Assessment format will be Continuous and Project Based.
A participant must attain at least 75% of physical attendance and complete all assignments to acceptable standards to be eligible to be awarded each modular certificate. Participant who did not complete the assignments to acceptable standards but attained at least 75% of physical attendance will be issued with a certificate of attendance. The successful achievement of all modular certificates will lead to the awarding of the Specialist Diploma in Computational BIM (Building)(SDCBB).

Entry Requirement

Applicants who do not wish to complete the Specialist Diploma programme are not subject to the entry requirements.

Applicant must be a Singapore Citizen or Permanent Resident or holder of valid employment pass/work permit; and possess one of the following qualifications:

a diploma (min. course duration of 2 years) or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline
a degree (min. course duration of 3 years) or equivalent qualification in a relevant discipline
a diploma / degree / equivalent qualification in any discipline with at least 3 years of working experience in the built environment or related fields.

Note: Applicants with relevant working experience but do not fulfil the above requirements will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Applicants must have their own computers/laptops with minimum specifications to run BIM software and access student portal.

Applicant with degree or diploma qualification where English is not the medium of instruction is required to achieve the ESS Workplace Literacy Test Level 6 issued by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG).

There will be exemption of attendance for “Introduction to Computational BIM” in Modular Certificate A for participants who have been awarded BCA Certificate of Successful Completion in Computational BIM or BCA Diploma in Digital Engineering (DDE).
