Why choose a degree in Construction Management (CM)?
The Construction Industry is the second largest employer in the United States and counts for 10% of the world economy and thus continues to generate new jobs every year that pay well. The construction industry has positions for all types of employees. You can choose to be outdoors on a construction jobsite or inside the corporate office or a little of both. It has positions for those who enjoy working in front of a computer all day and positions for those who hardly ever want to use a computer. Some positions will allow employees to mover around the United States and the World and some positions will keep you in the same regional area during a career. The construction industry is a dynamic people person industry that demands a multitasking ability. For those who are self-motivated problem solvers who take initiative, the construction industry can provide upward mobility with many financial rewards. It is also a great industry for those who eventually wish to create their own companies.
