Bachelor of Science in Building Construction
Bachelor of Science in Building Construction
We designed our undergraduate program to give students a complete view of the building life cycle. They learn technology-driven methods of construction management and critical leadership skills. The curriculum shows students how prefabrication, 3D printing, virtual and augmented reality, drones, and robotics can impact safety, profitability, and sustainability. It's the perfect major for students who prefer the practical and tangible aspects of the built environment.
Technology and Design Make Our Program Unique
We re-activated the Bachelor of Science in Building Construction program in 2020. As the construction industry evolved into a diversified and technology-adopting industry, we saw the need for an undergraduate program that captured progressive technology and an integrated approach.
The revised bachelor’s program incorporates perspectives of construction contractors, owners, and facility managers. It gives students a more complete understanding of the built environment’s design and construction challenges. In fact, it prepares students for construction roles that did not exist a decade ago, like virtual design and construction management, or drone-assisted project monitoring.
Complement Any Major With Our Certificate
Our undergraduate certificate is the perfect complement to several majors at Georgia Tech, including architecture, systems engineering, business administration, and more. This certificate also allows undergraduates to apply for the Master of Science in Building Construction and Facility Management degree without a GRE.
