Construction Management and Technology in the Digital Age

Abstract

This article is based on research carried out over the years by a professor and the research work of an undergraduate student at the Faculty of Technology of São Paulo (FATEC-SP), both from the Buildings course at the same institution. It should be noted that the text deals with the area of civil construction, but can be transposed to other economic segments, where changes in information technology present a new reality in the way people work, both with a focus on management and new executive technologies. Focusing on technology and civil engineering, but with a perception of the reality and challenges of technical and engineering areas in general, that is, an analysis of the current digital era that surrounds us. Through research and the academic experiences of both authors, the text moves towards concluding what the main actions would be for possible improvements in higher technological education to face this new reality.
