BIM technology is easily one of the most promising skills to learn for architecture students and graduates. Even though India has been slow in completely switching to BIM for architectural projects, it is widely accepted that adopting the technology will make building processes faster and more efficient.

As more and more architecture firms start to adopt BIM technology, it is important for young architects to start familiarising themselves with software tools such as Autodesk Revit, ArchiCAD, and more. It will definitely increase your chances of getting hired!

In fact, knowledge of Revit is a mandatory skill required by some of the top firms in India. Here's a list of some of the best firms from India that use BIM modelling for their projects.
