A-Z of construction engineering and management both at the corporate and project level. All participants, processes and aspects of the construction industry are introduced. Course concentrates on all major topics of company and project management, e.g. business development and marketing, bidding, planning and controlling of all vital processes, financial management, cost control, risk management, etc. Lectures are based on the real practice experience of all course''''s lecturers and various case studies are studied and solved. Online Building Industry Game (BIG) will be played by all course participants through the whole semester (a computer simulation of a realistic business environment where participants play the role of contractors, competing in a market with variable demand for construction work). In this online game, developed and directly operated by the California Polytechnic State University, students act as contractors, managing both, their companies and projects. | |
