Serious Games and Simulations for the Built Environment (SeGSiBE)

The Serious Games and Simulations for the Built Environment (SeGBE) Lab is dedicated to creating, testing, and disseminating highly effective and interactive games and simulations in order to transfer complex project management concepts and principles to stakeholders of the construction industry. To maximize learning outcomes, the lab develops and tests games and simulations for in-person settings as well as for online and virtual reality environments.

WHO WE ARE

Founded by Dr. David Jeong and Dr. Zofia Rybkowski at Texas A&M University in 2021

The Lab's mission is to significantly improve the productivity of the construction industry by imparting the true value and meaning of the advanced project management principles and processes via visually effective, and highly interactive games and simulations that deeply engage students through immersive learning platforms.

WHAT WE DO

Simulations and Games

SeGBE provides highly effective and interactive games and simulations for teaching and learning construction project management theories and principles and tests the efficacy and value as an alternative to existing teaching and learning methods.

Research

SeGSiBE conducts research on both design and use of simulations and serious games to better understand (1) which characteristics and contents of these tools improve the learning outcomes, (2) what is the effectiveness of these tools in the construction industry, and (3) what are the long-term benefits of these tools in the construction industry.
