Building Construction (BUILD-AS)


PROGRAM GOAL: The purpose of this program is to prepare students for careers in the construction industry. The focus of the program is both commercial and residential construction. Students completing the program typically are employed as supervisors, job foremen, or office support staff, performing such duties as purchasing or estimating. Students with previous building experience may seek to obtain either a county or state contractor's license. The primary goal of the program is to prepare students for employment after graduation. However, some students elect to transfer to an upper division school to seek a baccalaureate degree in building construction once they have completed the general education requirements of an A.A. degree.
