<p>Can anyone point me to a list or rank of top construction management schools?</p>
<p>Looking for top universities and colleges..</p>
<p>How do Ivy league schools rank in this program?</p>
<p>A lot of schools have a construction management track within their civil engineering department. There are also some that have it as a stand-alone major. Which one are you looking for?</p>
<p>Oregon State has a program like that. I do not know if it's a top one, but i know that they do.</p>
<p>Take a look at Pratt Institute.</p>
<p>U Washington.</p>
<p>U Washington is a pretty well respected school with a construction mgmt major. NYU offers a MS degree in Construction Mgmt in their continuing education program, and you don't need a relevant bachelor's degree. However, NYU gives preference to people with relevant experience though. </p>
<p>I was just reading a journal article about the role of contractors in LEED-NC projects (sustainable construction), and it was written by a few people from Michigan State. I'm not sure how this program is regarded, but I figured it may be of interest to you if you want to stay in Michigan.</p>
<p>University of Denver has a great construction managment program. It has had 100% placement of its grads before graduation for a number of years now. While right now housing and construction in general is in the dumps, Denver is a great city with a lot of opportunities because it is a growing city, a lot of chances for internships,etc.--and by the time you are ready to graduate, the economy will probably be back on an upswing.</p>
<p>Also in Colorado, CSU has a program that I've heard good things about.</p>
<p>I noticed this morning that one of my construction books was written by a professor from CalPoly SLO, so that's another to consider.</p>
<p>As far as I know, there are no rankings of CM schools, which is probably why people are naming off schools as they come to mind.</p>
<p>another interesting, related program is the "project management" program at University of Md:
Project</a> Management at the University of Maryland</p>
<p>Virginia Tech has a new construction engineering and management program. It's actually separate from the civil engineering program, but there are a lot of similarities between the programs and they probably collaborate a whole lot. The program is new, but I'd bet it's a pretty decent program considering the quality of Virginia Tech's civil engineering program.</p>
<p>Gatech's program might be the best.</p>
<p>CalPoly SLO</p>
<p>Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston. 2 semesters of Co-op are required for graduation which gives the student experience, and their foot in the door with construction management companies. Very high employment rate.</p>
<p>Texas A&M’s Construction Management program comes to mind</p>
<p>Michigan State University is the best.</p>

<p>Washington State University has a good program that is closely connected with their architecture school.</p>
