Building Change With Autodesk – CECM Interim Chair Anwar Alroomi’s Mission to Transform Construction Management Education
Dr. Anwar Alroomi, Associate Professor and Interim Chair of Civil Engineering and Construction Management, discusses her mission to transform the construction management field in this interview during Autodesk University 2024. Speaking with Autodesk Education Experiences VP Mary Hope McQuiston, Dr. Alroomi shares how she’s dramatically increased student enrollment over the past decade, with a particular focus on recruiting women and minorities into this traditionally male-dominated field. The interview also touches on exciting developments in construction technology, including Autodesk’s Forma software, which Dr. Alroomi believes will revolutionize early-stage decision-making and sustainable building design.
