BIM A+ European Master Course Scholarships

The BIM A+ European Master Course is an advanced, one-year multidisciplinary program focused on Building Information Modelling (BIM) integrated design, construction, and operation processes. Originally funded as an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Course by the Erasmus+ Programme, BIM A+ integrates the educational strengths of leading European universities, including the University of Minho in Portugal and the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, alongside dozens of associated research institutions and corporate BIM consultants. Students undergo rigorous academic preparation focusing on collaborative practices in virtual construction, structural engineering, software integration, and architecture. The curriculum structured across partner institutions requires scholars to complete coursework at one primary university and write their dissertation at a secondary host, leading to a joint double degree upon successful graduation. All coursework and examinations are conducted in English. Financial awards sponsored by the BIM A+ Consortium provide funding of up to €14,000 for top-tier applicants from any country. The scholarship covers tuition fees and monthly subsistence expenses, allowing scholars to focus on high-impact research and technological advancements in the engineering and construction sector.
