Construction

The Hole School of Construction Engineering is built to provide continual developments for construction processes, enhancing efficiency and safety, and maximizing on-site expertise.

Construction engineers combine management skills with their knowledge of construction methods to build facilities that are safe and on budget. In this field you might be involved as a site engineer in the building of projects ranging from shopping malls to bridges, or as a planner for projects ranging from housing developments to transportation systems.

The School is also proud to host:

• the NSERC Industrial Research Chair in Construction Engineering and Management
• the NSERC Industrial Research Chair in the Industrialization of Building Construction
• the NSERC Industrial Research Chair in Strategic Construction Modeling and Delivery
