Why Construction Management at Lawrence Tech?
Although on-the-job experience is important, construction managers must also have the ability to communicate with architects, engineers, technicians, and construction employees. A strong technical background, combined with excellent management skills, is required to estimate jobs, manage a job site, solve problems, and take on overall project management.
Designed for working professionals with experience in the construction industry and those interested in entering the field, the Bachelor of Science in Construction Management program at Lawrence Tech was developed with input from the Associated General Contractors of greater Detroit. This practical program is set up for full- and part-time students and consists of a well-rounded core of management classes along with a strong concentration in construction science and construction engineering. The program exceeds the requirements set by the American Council for Construction Education. Small class sizes and the ability to choose from a collection of focused electives make this program highly responsive to your individual needs.
Personal attention and a commitment to preparing you for leadership in your chosen field are important priorities at Lawrence Tech. The University’s signature theory and practice approach combines in-depth academic study with a wealth of practical experience that can help you sharpen your problem-solving capabilities and develop your ability to articulate and implement innovative management strategies.
