When I was in college, no one used Revit. That was quite a few years ago, so things should have changed since BIM is now mainstream. Right?
It turns out that this is not the case. Looking at resumes and portfolios of recent graduates, Rhino, Sketchup and Grasshoper are high on the skill list, but Revit is rarely even mentionned. I brought this up with friends involved in architecture schools: they told me Revit is considered “not cool” on campus.
I wanted to know if that was true or not, so I asked college students on Reddit to find out. Here is what they told me:
PROFESSORS DON’T WANT REVIT IN THE STUDIO
Most users report professors are generally not enthusiastic of Revit in college:
«The professor who runs the second year is pretty anti-Revit for her students.» – user YoStephen
«Some professors strictly forbid it. […] They did mark down projects that would use the base Revit doors, windows and railings.» – user chu12ch
