Abstract:
The complexity of contemporary construction projects presents a significant challenge to the competency of construction management professionals. The undergraduate construction management program to some extent determines the quality of construction management professionals. The comparison between the curriculum of the undergraduate construction management program in overseas high-profile universities and those in China provides critical inputs to the sustainable development of these programs. Using investigation, comparison and induction method, the curriculum of undergraduate program in construction management in 7 universities of U.S.A., U.K., Australia, and Singapore were analyzed. Consequently, strategies are proposed to improve the curriculum of undergraduate program in construction management of Chinese universities.
