Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a very useful tool that facilitates architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) professionals and stakeholders in planning, designing and constructing the buildings through 3D models. BIM can be widened to building operations and data storage which can be accessible by owners and others. Such data help owners and stakeholders to generate results according to the information gained through BIM models. The objectives of this study were to identify the perspective of students on drivers of BIM incorporation into the quantity surveying profession and to identify the perspective of students on benefits of BIM incorporation into the quantity surveying profession. A questionnaire survey was carried out to gain the students’ perspective on drivers and benefits of BIM incorporation into the quantity surveying profession in Klang Valley, Malaysia. Specifically, this study investigated twelve drivers and fourteen benefits of BIM incorporation into the quantity surveying profession. The top three drivers were improving the capacity to provide whole-life value to the client, desire for innovation to remain competitive and strong support from university management and industry. The top three benefits were BIM provides fast, effective and efficient quantity take-off and cost estimation, time savings in the preparation of estimating cost and improved visualization for better understanding of designs for measurement and minimise omissions. For future research, it is recommended that the study be replicated at other regions so that a clearer view of this topic can be obtained. Besides, qualitative research methods could be used in identifying other drivers and benefits not covered in this study. By answering the questions in the survey form, the students were able to gain some knowledge on BIM and its importance to the quantity surveying profession. Also, it would be interesting to include industrial practitioners in this kind of study, al

The importance of sustainable development can be seen in many universities in Malaysia in establishing the syllabus and also an awareness on the concept itself among their students. The purposes of this study is to evaluate student’s perception on sustainable development concept and knowledge. The quantitative method has been choose where there are 300 numbers of questionnaire has been distributed and test to the respondents which actually there were comes from selected private and also public higher institutions. The overall findings reveal that even they are come from two different types of intuition but they are actually having the same perception towards sustainable development concept practising in their intuition. The weaknesses found in this study is a challenge to their intuition to provide clear picture on sustainable development concept and how they can react to achieve and well-implemented this concept in their institutions.

The quality of transportation service it’s a main factor to increase the level of economic and social in Sarawak. By increasing the system may buzz-up all sector and may contribute the benefit to the community. This research will be conducting in four selected locations consist of Sibu, Miri, Bintulu and Kuching. The reason to choose these four locations it’s because of the role that each location plays in contributing to the economic sector in Sarawak state itself. Methodology to be used to conduct this research its quantitative method. Where, 300 set of questionnaire to be distributing to the stated locations to get a perception on the concept of sustainable transportation among respondents. Questionnaire distributing to those who has knowledge towards sustainable transportation and it’s limited to those who have experience in construction sector only. The objectives of this research it’s to investigate the construction player’s perception towards sustainability transportation in Kuching, Miri, Bintulu and Sibu; and to identify the barriers factor to implementing this concept. Expecting distribution from this research it’s to create awareness by implementing this concept it’s beneficial to the routine activities as well as can generate and increase the Sarawak’s economic sector. &nbsp
