Mission
As part of the Georgia Institute of Technology, a public research university, The School of Building Construction is committed to developing leaders who advance the state-of-the-art in all aspects of the life cycle of the built environment.
Vision
In the next decade, the School of Building Construction will become the global leader in education and research on life cycle of the built environment.
We see construction as the integrating discipline that brings together owners, developers, architects, engineers, technology experts, suppliers, facility managers, and occupants for the purpose of co-creating a harmonized and sustainable built environment.
Driven by our core values, our research and educational programs center on inclusion, innovation, human-centered technology and solutions, and collaboration. Our school uniquely addresses all phases of the life cycle of the built environment: initial planning, development, pre-design, design, pre-construction, construction, facility operation and management, and disposal/recycling.
