Construction managers are highly skilled in problem solving and technology use for efficiency in construction project management best practices. 食色视频 Construction Management students are currently benefiting from the generosity of three software and technology firms - Bluebeam, Procore and Raken.

Bluebeam has gifted the  department their Revu 2018 software for over 150 CM lab computers. In addition, students in select CM classes will receive a free download of the software valid for the academic year. This is the 5th year that Bluebeam has collaborated with our program. In the classroom, students create PDF documents, markup drawings and prepare quantity take-offs and estimates. Out of the classroom, Bluebeam Studio allows the students to collaborate on group projects and competition teams.

In a new partnership with Procore, 食色视频 CM professors are introducing the online Project Management system to our students. The software, tools and apps will provide the students with training in project management tasks such as document control, submittals, requests for information and change orders. Students will also be eligible to receive a digital badge upon completion of the Procure Student Certification program.

Raken is providing their Daily Reporting App to CM students participating in the summer internship program. The students use the app to record and report their weekly hours, as well as document their daily tasks with written descriptions and photographs. Using this app helps the students to understand the importance of a daily journal for a construction professional.

The CM department is proud to equip our students with fundamental project management skills and current construction technology. The academic partnerships with firms like Bluebeam, Procore and Raken help to prepare them for success as future leaders of the construction industry.
