Construction Management
What It Means
Construction management is the study of the management and technological aspects of residential and commercial construction
projects. Construction managers apply management techniques to the planning, design and construction of a project in order to
control the time and cost to complete the project and the quality of the construction. The construction industry can use
people who possess skills and knowledge in the management, technological, economic and environmental aspects of construction
projects.
