A survey was conducted to observe the dynamics between college building information modeling (BIM) education and student career development. The survey results were used to perform a comparative analysis of stakeholder perceptions in the educational and professional communities. The survey findings confirmed substantial gains in BIM adoption and implementation in both communities, and that a gap exists between the rapid growth of the BIM-related job market and the incentives in place to encourage students to commit to a BIM-oriented career path. The survey also evaluated the effectiveness of BIM education in colleges and industry recruiting practices in BIM staffing. The results suggested that an enhanced and more proactive partnership might be the solution to advancing BIM education and BIM talent acquisition in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry.
