About the Program

If you are looking for a way to move your construction, architecture, or engineering career forward, or are considering an undergraduate or graduate degree but are unable to make the full commitment at this time, consider a certificate from Drexel’s Construction Management program.

Developed at the request of two contractors' associations—the General Building Contractors Association and the Contractors Association of Eastern Pennsylvania—this certificate is suitable for those who have undergraduate degrees in other fields but wish to work in the construction industry, along with those who are already employed in the industry but seek career advancement or updated training. The certificate combines building systems and codes with estimating and offers focused electives that enhance field knowledge.

Admission Requirements

Successful completion of the Fundamentals of Construction Management certificate.
