Program ObjectivesThe construction management program is designed to prepare graduates in the field of commercial and industrial construction management. Graduates will assist in the planning, direction, and coordination of activities concerned with the construction and maintenance of commercial and industrial structures and facilities. They will participate in the conceptual development and organization of a construction project, pricing and procurement, cost scheduling and the overseeing of its organization, estimating, scheduling, and the implementation of the project. This includes material familiarization, specialized construction fields such civil, carpentry, mechanical and piping and plumbing systems, electrical/electronic, building envelopes, legal contracts, codes, permit process, and state identities with an understanding of the green elements of each.

Job OpportunitiesThe College researched the current job market projections for the program and found that construction managers and construction estimators were both on the Texas Cares Governor’s State Targeted Occupations list for March 2009, the most current list. TRACER, which is the Texas Labor Market Information source for occupational projections, estimated for the Gulf Coast Workforce Development Area (WDA) an increase of 5,440 in construction managers for the years 2008-2018, a 22.0 percent increase for the time period. TRACER also projected there would be an annual increase of 730 construction managers for the Gulf Coast WDA. SOCRATES (Standardized Occupational Components for Research and Analysis of Trends in Employment System) which is another employment outlook resource had very similar data as TRACER. SOCRATES projects a 23 percent increase in construction manager job openings in the Gulf Coast WDA for the 2008-2018 10-year period. SOCRATES projected there would be an average of 545 new job openings per year during that time period for the Gulf Coast WDA. SOCRATES projected there would be an average of 1645 construction management new job openings for the State of Texas on an annual basis. SOCRATES projected average annual new job openings in construction management of 9,490 per year at the national level.

Entry-level workers with an associate degree can expect an estimated starting salary of $40,000 to $45,000.
