Construction Management Degree Program
The School of Technology,
in collaboration with the School of Business and Economics, is
now offering a degree concentration in Construction Management
(CM). This program is a third concentration available under
the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology (BS-ET) degree.
Successful construction managers must work effectively with licensed
professional engineers and architects, skilled tradesmen, licensed
surveyors and vendors of
building materials and fabricated components. They also work with
technical information on a broad array of subjects including building
specifications, structural and material testing information, environmental
regulations, and legal and contractual requirements.
Some
of the job roles graduates with the BS-ET, CM degree could perform
include: 
• project manager/superintendent
• construction management
• construction equipment sales
• construction materials sales
• construction estimator
• management of (or own) a contracting business
• contract administration/architect’s representative
According
to members of the School of Technology Industrial Advisory Board,
there are significant opportunities for graduates of a 4-year
technology program in the construction management field. This
is supported by information from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
An employee with a 4-year degree in CM would have enhanced earning
potential and opportunities for responsibilities compared to one
with a 2-year CET degree.
Initially,
the curriculum for this new option will be structured as a 2+2
program, with the first two years
being the existing
associate degree program in Civil Engineering Technology (CET)
followed by an additional two years of primarily business and
management coursework along with
upper level CET courses.
