Construction projects are the outcomes of collaboration of many professionals such as architects, construction managers, contractors, and subcontractors, in regardless of any phase in their lifecycle, including planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation. Construction management oversees the entire process and controls the project to be completed within budget, on time, and meeting safety and quality requirements. In recent years, critical issues such as the increase of construction scale and complexity, rising prices of raw materials, and severe shortage of construction workers, have forced practitioners and researchers to explore innovative techniques of construction management.

The construction management (CM) program currently has four faculty members. Their major expertise covers general construction management, construction automation, artificial intelligence applications, build-operate-transfer, large-scale public works management, construction economic analysis, site management, and high-tech facility construction management.

Collaborating closely with the Department of Management Science and Department of Industrial Engineering and Management, our program provides students with a wide variety of related theoretical and practical courses, including scheduling, cost estimation, project control, risk management, financial management, value engineering, building information modeling, and public investment. The CM program aims to educate students to be professional project managers who can meet the new challenge of the construction industry.
