This domain is an excellent opportunity for students in the construction field, professionals with design backgrounds, and program developers to create a difference in the actual field through their own creativity. The course amalgams architectural drawings with structural detailing and presents in a straightforward language of 3D graphics, using cutting-edge technology like AutoCAD, CATIA, BIM modeling, etc. This course acts as a magnet for booming real estate development because all the requirements from architectural, civil, building services and estimation are interwoven and taken care of in a single course with live examples.
