Your Questions Answered

Big decision, simple answers. Let’s clear it up.

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.

You’ll learn how to manage construction projects, including estimating costs, scheduling work, and overseeing operations. Coursework also covers construction methods, materials, safety, contracts, and building systems.

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.

If you are applying for a license and do not have a Social Security number, the TDLR provides the following application.

Please check with the program advisor or department for more details.

Yes. The Associate of Applied Science or related degree options can transfer to four-year universities for students who want to continue studying construction management or construction science.
