Construction technology students have several options available to them so that a program can be designed to meet individual needs. A transfer program for those students interested in a baccalaureate degree in construction management from four year schools accredited by the American Council of Construction Education is available.

The graduate of the Associates of Applied Science degree will have gained a solid foundation in the construction industry. The curriculum requires both training in the technical aspects of many of the components of construction, blended with some engineering communication tools, and an understanding of the tools used by management to foster efficiency in the industry. The graduate of this program will be well equipped to enter the industry at a level above entry craft or assume a position in entry-level management.
