The Construction Management Program prepares students to enter the construction industry in technical, managerial, and supervisory roles in three major areas: residential and light commercial building construction, heavy commercial building construction, and civil construction (roads, bridges, utilities). Entry-level employment is generally in the areas of project management, field inspection, material testing, cost estimating, computer-aided drafting, and surveying.
Program Notes*
• Students may substitute a technical elective for CIT 230 and another surveying course for CIT 211 with approval of a construction faculty advisor.
• Students planning to transfer should take MAT 124 instead of MAT 134. Select a math elective with advice from a construction faculty advisor.
• Students transferring to a four-year institution should plan their programs with a construction faculty advisor.
General Education electives are chosen from two of the following categories: communications, social/behavioral sciences, humanities/fine arts, mathematics, physical/life sciences.
