Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, and Pittsburg, Kansas-based Pittsburg State University are the first two U.S. universities to have their undergraduate construction management (CM) programs independently accredited, says the Construction Management Association of America.
CMAA worked with ABET—the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology, which accredits U.S. engineering schools and other technology programs—to develop uniform CM school standards, the group says.
