Pathway Summary:
Construction Management focuses on careers in designing, planning, managing, building, and maintaining the built environment. The offered courses center around the most widely used construction and manufacturing materials. Through a series of projects and problem-solving activities, students are exposed to the techniques and processes common to designing and finishing construction products. Students will design, plan, identify and solve problems, and build prototypes. Students use electrical and mechanical equipment to build solutions to technical problems. Upon completion of the courses students earn the equivalent credit of a first-year carpenter apprenticeship as well as high school credit and have the opportunity to continue in their apprenticeship or pursue any related 2 year or 4 year degree.
