Internship Practice Track

The BS in Construction Management program is now offering an Internship Practice Track. This track is optional and provides students an opportunity to gain industry experience, while completing their degree. Internship for Credit courses are built into the curriculum as electives, so that students can still complete the degree within the planned timeframe, while gaining practical industry experience. Students in this track apply their hands-on classroom knowledge in appropriate internship positions beginning their junior year. Our experienced faculty and connections with industry partners will help students to network with future employers.
