Welcome to the Department of Building Construction Management. Thank you for taking the time to visit our web site. The department’s educational mission focuses on the preparation of students for a lifelong challenging and rewarding career in the construction industry. We take pride in the fact that we are continuously applying new technologies to the construction industry, and providing our students with a current, relevant, and applied education.

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 program’s 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 Lafayette, Indiana.
