The opportunities in the management of the construction process are
forever increasing because of technological developments and increasing demands for more
affordable, better quality, and more sophisticated building systems. Additionally, the
rapid growth of the construction industry demands a new kind of professional. The
Department of Building Construction Management at Purdue University has positioned itself
well to take advantage of these opportunities by being at the state of the art of
application.
Managing the people, construction process, materials, equipment, and
financial assets requires a highly educated construction professional. The faculty,
students, facilities, and the support from the construction industry and alumni are the
main attributes that contribute to our programs ability to provide students with
exceptional opportunities. Our high quality faculty have the diverse experience and
expertise to provide the student with the broad range of educational opportunities
necessary for a successful career. Our students have received many national awards and
enjoy an exceptionally high placement rate in the construction industry after completing
their degree. Our facilities are unmatched. Please review our Facilities Web pages,
including the live camera on the Dorsey Moss Construction Methods Laboratory.
Additionally, support from the construction industry and alumni contribute significantly
to student learning and the development of new construction management methods.
We are indeed proud of our program, and we welcome you to visit the program at West
