Construction Management focuses on planning, organizing, and overseeing construction
projects from start to finish. This includes scheduling, budgeting, safety, and coordinating
teams on job sites.

Completion of a program at San Jac does not guarantee eligibility for licensure or
certification.
This program leads to a license from the Texas Department of License and Regulation
(TDLR). TDLR now requires applicants to provide documentation of lawful presence in
the United States for both initial license issuance and renewals.
Students who are unable to provide the required lawful presence documentation will
not be eligible to obtain or renew a TDLR-issued license, even if they successfully
complete the program.
Please check with the program advisor or department for more details.

universities for students who want to continue studying construction management or
