, university programs inconstruction engineering must adapt to meet the current and future job market demands. Theresults will not only identify specific AI competencies deemed vital in the constructionindustry, per the perspectives of the interviewed professionals and experts, but also provideactionable insights into how these skills can be developed and integrated into the industry,enhancing project efficiency and quality. The analysis of semi-structured interviews withindustry experts reveals a labor market that highly values critical reflection, ethical principles,interpersonal and management skills, technical mastery in programming, data analysis,mastery of emerging technologies and construction-related software, English, andcybersecurity

Furthermore, the course aligns with the requirements of commonconstruction-related accreditation bodies, such as the American Council for ConstructionEducation (ACCE) [6] and the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)[7], by providing discussions related to ethics and risk management.The course is a lecture-based, 3-credit hour course. Two one-hour and fifteen-minute lectures perweek were scheduled for the course for the Fall 2022 semester. Through over 29 biweeklyclasses and book discussions, the instructors utilized: (i) architectural history as a background todiscuss the relationship between the changes in

However, literature thatprovides insights into developing a specific case study in construction engineering andmanagement is scarce. To fill this knowledge gap, this paper presents the dynamics ofdeveloping an educational case study to explore the implementation of target value design(TVD). This case study was developed for engineering and construction management students toformulate, discuss, and decide on strategies, actions, and solutions to provide the best value tothe project owner when implementing TVD. This work-in-progress paper focuses on the pilottest when developing the case study. Pre-class

Finally, the adoption of automation in the ConstructionManagement curriculum needs to maintain a balance between physical skills and newtechnological competencies to ensure the technological usability for students.Construction automation has been gradually incorporated into the construction engineering andmanagement programs across the United States. The content analysis of 77 U.S. institutions thatoffer the construction management program showed that construction automation and its relevantcomponents have been fully and partially incorporated into twelve institutions, as described inTable 1.

In fact, 11 listings explicitly mentioned the need for ethics or integrity, such as“demonstrated commitment to ethics and integrity.” Finally, leadership skills were not frequentlymentioned, which would be expected as our scope was entry-level positions.

[7] and Sleem and Elhenawy [13]. This threatens to create a two-tiered system where only students at well-resourced institutions benefit from cutting-edgeapproaches. Additionally, ethical considerations surrounding algorithmic bias and transparency ineducational AI tools require attention, as students may internalize flawed patterns embedded inthese systems.The successful integration of AI in sustainable construction education

Which sector does your company work in? For how long has your companybeen using BIM? Following that, a 1-hour panel discussion started, and the interviewer askedquestions about the implementation of BIM in their company.

to leadership roles [7]. Similarly,minority groups face systemic obstacles, including cultural biases and a lack of role models,which hinder career progression [8]. As a result, as the construction sector becomes increasinglyglobalized and complex, the need for DEI has grown, not only for ethical reasons but also todrive innovation and problem-solving [9].To address these systemic issues, higher education institutions play a crucial role in shaping thefuture workforce of the construction industry. Many universities have implemented initiatives toaddress enrollment gaps and foster inclusive learning environments. For example, programsaimed at increasing minority student participation in STEM fields have improved retention andgraduation rates

Oswald Beiler’s approach was integrating publicpolicy discussions into a required, upper-level civil engineering course [6]. The course addressedthe fundamental concepts of leadership, ethics, and sustainability introduced during earlier years.It elaborated further with the students on how to apply those concepts to more complex policyapplications. For example, students worked on case studies on climate change mitigation andinfrastructure resilience, applying real examples to understand how engineering and policy cometogether.
