Construction Engineering (B.S. in Engineering)

Do you aspire to oversee a construction project鈥攖aking a design to completion and being integral to planning, design, and execution of varied projects involving structures and facilities? If you envision a hands-on career helping bring safe and sustainable projects to communities, earning your bachelor's degree from 澳门六合彩官网直播 is a great way to start. 

I've decided I want to go the construction superintendent route because that's more in-the-field work鈥攕cheduling, planning, things of that nature.
