Program Overview

The Honours Bachelor of Technology (Construction Management) four-year degree program combines theory, applied research, field study, and hands-on practical education. Recognizing that today’s successful construction manager needs both technical and managerial skills, we offer a blend of studies in construction engineering and technology with business and management methods.

You'll master construction-related technical disciplines and soft skills that are critical to completing projects on time and within budget. As a graduate, you'll receive the academic credential designation of Hons. B.Tech. (Construction Management).

The Honours Bachelor of Technology (Construction Management) program is recognized by the construction industry and is fully accredited by the Canadian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (CIQS).

Graduates also qualify to obtain their Gold Seal Certification (GSC) offered by the Canadian Construction Association (CCA) to become certified superintendents, forepeople, estimators, project managers, construction managers, and safety practitioners.

Your Field Education Options

An integral component of the Honours Bachelor of Technology (Construction Management) degree program is a mandatory field experience semester offered in the spring/summer of the third year of the program.

Field Experience course: Students register in the Field Experience course (TCOP 1001), secure a field experience opportunity in a construction management-related role, obtain a minimum of 450 hours of relevant fieldwork experience or equivalent and pass the course.
