experientiallearning of the intern and also considered the observations and analysis of feedback obtained fromcompany officials about the inputs and performance of the intern. The case study methodologyshowcased the student’s readiness to perform different tasks while on the job as a result ofacademic and stimulatory preparations through the construction management program of study.The following list explains the common case study protocol that guided the researchers’methodology (adapted from Yin, 1994)1: Purpose and rationale for case study Significance of the international industry practice Research questions: is an international internship of value to the CM student and if positive can this value be quantified? Design based on

morelikely to implement codes into their work even when not required or enforced by law. A portionof learning to build back stronger includes educating to the IRC. Understanding the current statusand best practice for teaching students majoring in architecture, civil engineering, andconstruction science management (here in after known as “construction students”) about the IRCprovides the first step to mitigating communities in the future 6.BackgroundA literature review for teaching about the IRC produced no new publications since the early2000’s when the International Code Council (ICC) was formed and states began adoptingversions of the IRC. Prior to the ICC, research publications discussed the difficulty in codeintegration to the curricula due to

management practices andsuccessful construction projects.MethodologyThe purpose of this study is to make a case for incorporating Pre-Construction Cost Estimatinginto the undergraduate and graduate Construction Engineering and Management curriculum.This study has the following two main research objectives: 1) Investigate the current state of teaching Pre-Construction Cost Estimating in Construction Engineering and Management and Construction Management programs. 2) Translate the results of industry based research to academia to adequately prepare our students to estimate costs from the pre-construction phase of a project to the end of its lifecycle.In order to investigate the current state of teaching Pre-Construction Cost

to (a) begin to acquire an understanding ofconstruction hazards grasp difficult technical concepts and; (b) understand how safety sciencechanges over time as a project is observed and lessons are learned; (c) analyze the impacts oftechnical decisions on the execution of the project; and (d) appreciate the importance of ethicalconsiderations in the design and construction decision-making process. Case studies are alsouseful in the education of the engineer and construction manager since they provide anopportunity for students to appreciate the problems of stakeholders to the construction process[21]. Other researchers have integrated case studies into engineering curriculum for differentpurposes [4, 16]. These include: Introductions to
