A professional construction manager is someone who coordinates all that goes into a construction project. The overall goal of a construction manager is to meet the needs of their clients, by producing a financially sound project that is completed on time. This product must meet the specific needs of the client as well as the codes put forth by government.

Responsibilities of a construction manager are plentiful. He or she must manage:
    •    Project planning
    •    Cost
    •    Time
    •    Safety
    •    Quality
    •    Contracts

Working professionals seeking to advance their education, students interested in construction management, or seasoned employees looking to start their own companies often choose construction management to help achieve their career goals. People with construction management degrees often work as project managers, superintendents, estimators, schedulers, or green construction/LEED specialists. Many people in the construction industry own and operate their own businesses.
