Construction Project Management
Do you find yourself thinking about how buildings are constructed or imagining what it would be like to be on the job site organizing the construction process? If so, Construction Project Management can provide the skills necessary for a career in this industry.
As you begin your two-year degree at Kaskaskia College, you will study the materials and methods used in residential and commercial construction, along with blueprint reading. As your understanding of building construction grows, you will explore the field of estimating using various software tools such as Microsoft Excel, Bluebeam Revu, and On-Screen Takeoff by On Center Software.
Once you hone your skills at estimating you will take on scheduling (using Microsoft Project) and estimating a small commercial project. Contracts, Industry terminology and Construction Law is also an important learning experience gained as a part of this degree. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a commonly practiced method of project coordination and delivery taught though a 3D modeling course.
If you are a problem solver who doesn't want to spend all of your time behind a desk this career will give you a balance of on site visits with the organization of the construction site.
