Bachelor of Science in Construction Management
The Bachelor of Science in Construction Management at California Baptist University provides a one-of-a kind educational experience. This unique undergraduate degree combines construction management, real estate and engineering from one of the nation’s top Christian universities.
The fast-paced field of construction management is without a doubt one of the most competitive industries in the world. Construction managers are one of the three most vital individuals on a construction site, equal in status and importance to the architect and engineer. This degree program prepare students with an understanding of construction design, estimation and project cost control through understanding of materials and construction sequences, design principles, supervision concepts, human relations and faith integration to the construction realm.
The program shapes self-confident construction professionals who collaborate on interesting team projects as well as with construction firms during the course of their study. Upon graduation these construction professionals will not only have applied many of the needed skills required for success in the construction field but also possess a contemporary and faith based framework relating to the construction operating platform.
Program Design and Career Opportunities
The competitiveness of the Construction Management program's coursework is enhanced by a variety of available value-added experiences like the Construction Management Club that coordinates special events and interacts with industry leaders through networking opportunities, and field trips. Your CBU professors have extensive experience and knowledge in their fields and are able to bridge applied and academic practice to the classroom environment through application-oriented instruction.
Career opportunities in construction are predicted to be excellent for years to come, especially for professionals with training in construction. This is due in part to the numerous job openings arising each year as experienced construction workers retire from the industry. The following listing is representative of possible career paths in construction; Construction Estimator, Construction Superintendent, Construction Safety Manager, Construction Inspector, General Manager, Project Coordinator, Facility Manager, and Company Owner to mention a few.
Construction Management Program Student Outcomes
Construction Management students will:
- Understand of Residential, Commercial, and Heavy Construction Systems.
- Demonstrate competency in construction estimating through blue print reading, onscreen take offs and cost estimating skills as guided by the Construction Specification Institute (CSI).
- Demonstrate competency in construction scheduling through industry software applications.
- Demonstrate competency in construction finance through acquired knowledge in accounting, economics, and statistics.
- Demonstrate applied knowledge in construction safety as stipulated by OSHA standards.
- Effectively communicate within the construction environment.
- Become proficient in applied technologies including construction surveying.
- Develop construction management skills to effectively govern construction teams.
- Understand renewable and sustainable directives as they relate to the built environment.
- Demonstrate competency in applying faith based principles to the construction operating platform.
