An A–Z overview of construction engineering and management at both the corporate and project levels. All participants, processes, and aspects of the construction industry are introduced. The course focuses on the major areas of company and project management, including business development, contracting, estimating, competitive bidding, planning and controlling of vital processes, financial management, cost control and risk management, among other topics. Lectures are based on the real practice experience of all course lecturers and various case studies are studied and solved. The course integrates theoretical knowledge with real practice, preparing students for effective decision-making and leadership roles in construction companies and project teams. Building Industry Game is played by all course participants throughout the semester. In this online simulation of a realistic business environment with variable conditions and demand for construction work (developed and operated by the California Polytechnic State University), students act as contractors, managing their companies and projects they compete for.
