Faridabad News, 10 February 2021 : In order to provide training and hands-on experience to the students on Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology which is one of the most recent developments in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Industry, J.C. Bose University of Science and Technology, YMCA, Faridabad has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TechnoStruct Academy, a training division of renowned US Engineering and Technology BIM Firm – TechnoStruct, LLC, headquartered in California USA.

The Registrar Dr. Sunil Kumar Garg and North India Head at TechnoStruct Academy Mr. Arun Kochar signed the MoU in the presence of Vice Chancellor Prof. Dinesh Kumar. Chairperson of Civil Engineering Prof. M.L. Aggarwal, Director, Industry Relations Dr. Rashmi Popli, and Associate Professor at Technostruct Academy Ms. Divyashree were also present on this occasion.
The MoU intends to offer ‘Technostruct Training and Development Programme’ to the students of University which include free-ship, hands-on exposure on international projects and placement assistance.

Expressing pleasure over the industrial tie-up to provide industry specific technical skills to the students of Civil Engineering and to enhance their employability, Vice Chancellor Prof. Dinesh Kumar said that the Construction Industry has undergone revolutionising changes in the last decade by embracing technological advancements. New-age construction methods have become highly efficient to ensure faster delivery time and cost effectiveness. The Vice Chancellor hoped that the collaboration would help in addressing the need of the construction industry to have skilled people, he added.

Prof. M.L. Aggarwal said that BIM is an emerging technology in the construction industry which helps to digitally construct an accurate virtual model of a building. This model, known as a Building Information Model, can be used for planning, design, construction, and operation of the facility and helps architects, engineers, and constructors visualize what is to be built in a simulated environment to identify any potential design, construction, or operational issues. Thus, the collaboration would help the students gain practical knowledge on cutting-edge technology in the construction industry.
Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Arun Kochar, North India Head of Technostruct said that there is quite a dearth in Indian construction industry that TechnoStruct Academy is trying to fulfil by providing international standard BIM Management courses. The Indian construction industry is on rise after the pandemic hit. Real estate sector in India is expected to reach a market size of US $1 trillion by 2030 and to contribute 13 percent to the country’s GDP by 2025. Thus, the BIM Technology would help students to gain opportunities by acquiring job oriented skills, he added.
