Minor in Construction Management

24.0 quarter credits

Students in Civil Engineering, Architectural Engineering and Architecture may select to pursue Construction Management as a minor area of study. Because construction is inherently related to design in these disciplines, the Construction Management minor can be a natural extension of each field of study.

The requirements for the minor include:

• completion of a minimum of 24 credits
• courses used to fulfill general education requirements may not be counted toward an academic minor
• up to nine credits earned within the student's major may be counted toward the minor with minor department approval.
• prerequisite courses may be counted toward the minor if recommended by the minor department.
