Program Goal:

This program is designed to prepare students for employment as construction project managers, project estimators, superintendents, schedulers and/or construction purchasing agents. The focus of the program is on providing students with broad transferrable skills, understanding and demonstration of the basic elements of construction management: planning; basic principles of business, management and finance; and the technical aspects of the construction industry, including materials and methods, reading blueprints, estimating quantities of materials, procuring materials, scheduling and working in a general construction environment; with an environmentally conscientious, sustainable, “green” building perspective.
