Construction Management Engineering Technology

Bachelor of Science Degree

The Construction Management Engineering Technology program has been designed to respond to the need for skilled professionals possessing the level of sophistication necessary to accommodate technology applications in the construction industry. Courses apply extensive use of the computer in the technical specialty together with upper level mathematics, economics, and communications skills.

The Construction Management Engineering Technology program encompasses study in traditional engineering technology offerings (Statics, Strength of Materials, Structural design Materials testing, etc.). The program is complemented with offerings in project control, scheduling, cost control quality control, construction productivity, and economics. It prepares students for employment in an emerging occupation within the construction industry. Graduates will possess expertise in construction and specialized administrative skills commensurate with industry requirements for coordination of design documents and project manuals prepared by design professionals.

The Bachelor of Science in Construction Management Engineering Technology is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, www.abet.org, under the General Criteria and Program Criteria for Construction Engineering Technology and Similarly Named Programs.

In New York State, graduates may site the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam upon graduation and the Professional Engineering (PE) exam after working six years under a professional engineer.

Construction Management Engineering Technology (BS) Program Outcomes:

  • Graduates will have broad background in one or more areas of infrastructure and building construction, estimating, cost control, project management and technology. Graduates will assume leadership positions in the construction industry.
  • Graduates will be creative problem solvers in industry.
  • Graduates will be effective communicators in professional setting.
  • Graduates will adapt state of the art technologies to improve processes in industry.
  • Graduates will pursue continuing education and professional development opportunities to develop a leader or member of a technical team.

Please refer to the General Education, Applied Learning, and Writing Intensive requirement sections of the College Catalog and consult with your advisor to ensure that graduation requirements are satisfied.

As a part of the SUNY General Education Framework, all first-time full time Freshman at Farmingdale State College (FSC) beginning Fall 2023, are required to develop knowledge and skills in Diversity: Equity, Inclusion, and Social Justice (DEISJ). Students will be able to fulfill this requirement at FSC by taking a specially designated DEISJ course that has been developed by faculty and approved by the DEISJ Review Board. DEISJ-approved courses may meet other General Education Knowledge and Skills areas and/or core competencies and thus be dually designated. DEISJ-approved courses may also earn other special designations such as those for Applied Learning or Writing Intensive.
