given to the broader range of concerns that makeup the entire construction process.2Accreditation requirements such as those prescribed by the Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology (ABET) or American Council for Construction Education (ACCE) providecertain content-area mandated minimum requirements. The ABET/ACCE minimums ensure abroad-based education for the undergraduate student. By generalizing the education, though,the requirements to some extent inhibit an in-depth focus and concentration that advancedgraduate education can provide and which students will need on-the-job as upper-level projectmanagers. The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) recently acknowledged the needfor higher education of its engineers by approving
