Construction Management (AAS)
With new technology comes new materials, new products, and new implementation techniques. Construction Management is an ideal major if you enjoy a creative challenge and like to see the results of your work. Graduates of this program have found work as supervisors and project managers with construction companies like DEW Construction or PC Construction. Other career paths include equipment sales, heavy machine operators, or consulting work.
Launch 2021 Construction Lab (Randolph Center)
This program is designed to serve both recent high school graduates with limited experience in the construction field and adults already employed in the building industry who want to prepare themselves for more advanced roles.
If you want to expand your career options, consider obtaining a 4-year degree in Construction Management.
A student with an Associate of Applied Science in Construction Management will be able to:
- Communicate construction materials and methods using graphical symbols, drafting practice, and computer-aided design
- Create and oral communications appropriate to the discipline
- Use computers for computation, research, documentation, and communication
- Identify building components and materials
- Demonstrate and model industry-accepted (OSHA) safety practices
- Understand a load table and choose proper materials for structural members
- Create and administer construction schedules
- Apply basic surveying techniques for construction layout and control
- Create written communications appropriate to the discipline
- Complete construction project cost estimates
Due to emphasis on mobility, cooperative projects, and paperless construction management in the program, we recommend a laptop. Electronic textbooks are used frequently. PC software, including Microsoft Office, Bluebeam, and CAD, is available to students at little to no cost.
