Online Construction Management Degree Programs

Construction managers oversee the entire range of construction operations on a project, from beginning to end. They can be involved in the construction of commercial, industrial, institutional, residential, and civil facilities. Though they don't do any actual building, construction managers lead and manage every aspect of the construction project, including hiring/firing, inventory, distribution, safety regulations, legal paperwork, and coordination.

A degree program in construction management teaches students about structural design, mechanical and electrical systems, materials and methods, planning, cost estimating, procuring contracts, labor relations, and other related topics.

Construction management degree programs also teach how to read architectural and engineering drawings, but a degree in construction management is completely different from a degree in architecture or civil engineering. Construction management focuses more on the supervisory and business aspects of construction and engineering.

A graduate in construction management has an excellent chance of finding a job after school. You may begin as an assistant project manager to start, but career advancement is often easy in this sector, with larger responsibilities and salaries to follow. The median annual salary of construction managers is almost $70,000 and given rising populations, especially in major cities, there will be plenty of opportunities for construction management graduates in the years to come.
