    Have no degree, instead have 4 years of experience, 3 of which as a foreman. With that experience I landed a position as a field engineer, which is a gateway into higher management in the civil side of construction

    I have 5 years construction experience. Dropped out of university at year 2 and a half. And I found out that since I completed my apprenticeship it qualifies me for 60 credits at University for a bachelor's in construction management. I think im going to do it. Idk if my heart is in it but it's an opportunity and I don't like missing opportunities.

    Weird question. I have a degree in a completely different field than construction but life changes are having me consider going back and getting a CM degree. Would a masters degree carry the same weight as 4 year degree because with my current ed. Level I could do a masters in half the time.

      Talk to the trades on site. Ask questions as they build. I remember working as a framer and a new CM was always asking questions about framing. He ended up with a pretty good idea of the process after a while.

    I think a Civil Engineering degree with a concentration in Construction offers more value than a regular CM degree. You can get a PE license after 4 years also you can get your GC license in a year or 2 after graduation.

      @NotTrolling399 3 месяца назад

      I would agree, except that if a CE and CM student are wanting to both become construction managers, the CM student is going to have a significantly easier time while making as much as the CE holder.
      Plus, Engineering students are some of the most awkward people I’ve ever met and construction management is all about communication.
