Notes on employment for Construction managers

  • Employers prefer individuals who combine construction industry work experience with a bachelor�s degree in construction science, construction management, or civil engineering.
  • Good employment opportunities are expected; however, employment can be sensitive to the short-term nature of many construction projects and to cyclical fluctuations in construction activity.
