This paper identifies and analyzes theses and dissertations available in the Catalog of theses and dissertations of CAPES that were defended in Brazil between 2013 and 2018 and deal with the Modeling of Construction Information. It aims to present an overview of the main topics covered in these studies, and identify where they were carried out. In addition, a study is made of those works that discuss BIM education, aiming to contribute to the implementation of this modelling in courses related to Architecture, Civil Engineering, Construction and Building Operations. Content Analysis was the qualitative research method adopted to perform both the selection and the analysis of the identified researches. Among the results, it is highlighted that: (a) there are already studies on BIM in the various phases of the life cycle of the building, but most of them deal with the design stage; (b) 78.3% of the studies were produced in the south and southeast regions of the country and in educational institutions based in capitals and large cities, indicating the need for internalization and diffusion of BIM to other places; (c) there are a variety of researched topics related to the subject that address questions about BIM and can assist in its adoption in both educational institutions and the labor market. Finally, this work contributes to the adoption of BIM in Brazil as it systematizes information that is already available, helping both those who seek training and those who promote training or intend to work in this field.
