Bachelor of Science in Construction Management
Requirements and Core Courses
The curriculum is organized into two parts. Pre-construction management occurs during the first year and is followed by a professional construction management curriculum in the last three years.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Admission to the construction management program will be considered for those who have qualified for admission to WSU and fulfill the additional program requirements. Students may take their first year at WSU or at other institutions that offer equivalent course work. Having fulfilled the requirements of the first year, all students must then apply for admission into the construction management program. Due to limitations of space and facilities, certification as a major in construction management can only be granted to a limited number of the most qualified students.
Selection is based upon satisfaction of minimum requirements and overall grade point average in the following courses (See university catalog for specific course requirements for each year):
