STUDENT REVIEWS
"The most interesting is how we can decide between renting or purchasing the equipment and all different factors like project duration, budget, maintenance, would the new equipment be useful to the company in the future and timing for renting and purchasing.– Studying earthwork equipment help me get better understanding for the equipment used in our project and how to calculate the equipment productivity."

“The class met my expectations as I wanted an overview of civil construction processes."

“Thank you for a great 10 weeks of learning! The most important thing I personally learned was how to read and analyze blueprint plans, as this will be extremely applicable as I pivot into the construction industry in the coming months. Additionally, learning about critical documents and different types of concrete were very significant towards my future job."
