Abstract: The Industrial Revolution 4.0 in the 21st century has necessitated a shift in learning experiences and self-development to adapt to evolving learning mindsets and digital literacy demands. Teachers are encouraged to reduce administrative workloads that are not aligned with the digital age and focus on adopting digital-based learning models and media that suit modern student needs. This study aimed to implement and analyze the impact of case-based projects integrated with Building Information Modeling (BIM) software on civil engineering students’ understanding of interior building design. This mixed-methods research utilized a sequential explanatory design. A sample of 60 civil engineering students was selected through random sampling. Quantitative data were analyzed using path analysis, while qualitative data were examined through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification analysis. The findings indicate that the case-based project approach, integrated with BIM software, was effectively applied and positively impacted students’ skills in learning BIM. Students showed improved abilities to analyze, explore, and synthesize information through hands-on experience with real-world case-based projects. This study contributes a novel educational model by integrating technology with learning methods through case-based projects in BIM software. This innovation supports students in enhancing their analytical and problem-solving skills and aligns with the requirements of the Industrial Revolution 4.0
