The Undergraduate curriculum in Construction Management at Michigan State University is interesting, challenging and extremely rewarding. Our curriculum is focused on the business aspects of construction and development.
Students receive a solid base in the management basics required of industry.
The construction industry is a people business. The management of this robust industry can be likened to that of an orchestra leader. They have to be knowledgeable about all the players' methods and equipment along with possessing the people skills to get everyone playing in tune. The most common players in construction that come to mind are businesses such as excavators, masons, electricians, carpenters, steel erectors, etc. All these disciplines must work together as a team to complete a project on time and on budget.
