Therefore, it is important to publish academic studies on BIM models and to train new professionals who can implement BIM in the architecture, construction, and operation sector (AECO). This study aims to measure the maturity of BIM at the Syrian Virtual University (SVU) in order to evaluate and develop the Building Information Modeling and Management (BIMM) master's program. The research methodology is based on measuring maturity using a maturity measurement tool for higher education institutions (BIM maturity matrix for higher education institutions or BIM-HEI), in addition to distributing an electronic questionnaire to BIMM master's students, with a sample size of 93 students. Based on the results of the maturity measurement and respondents' answers, this study proposes recommendations and proposals to develop the master's program. Furthermore, it presents a new contribution by presenting a successful model for teaching BIM in universities, which can serve as an example for educational institutions in Syria to plan and adopt BIM in their curricula, while properly disseminating and adopting the BIM culture within their universities. 2023 52 73 1771 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 10.54216/IJBES.060104 https://www.americaspg.com/journal/22/article/1771 https://www.americaspg.com/storage/11775084437.pdf
