The Bachelor of Science in Building Construction is a four-year program for students interested in careers in construction management, techniques, operations and related areas in the construction industry. The degree draws upon skills in communication and interpersonal relations, rather than architectural and engineering design.
The freshman and sophomore programs of study are designed to provide transfer opportunities for junior and community college graduates. Prospective transfer students should consult their advisers or write to the Rinker School of Building Construction for a pre-building construction program of local study.
Opportunities for advancement and increasing responsibility exist in all areas of the construction industry, including land development, home building, public building and industrialized building systems, commercial, industrial, marine and heavy construction, underwater and space-age facilities, materials and equipment sales and installations, and construction product research, development, sales and applications.
