AB  - Two of the most commonly offered construction programs are Construction Management (CM) and Construction Engineering (ConE). While “engineering” and “management” are supposedly two distinct streams of education, the differences between ConE and CM becomes blurred in real life situations. The objectives of the research presented in this paper was to shed light on the curricular differences between CONE and CM programs and define the state-of-the-art CONE and CM curriculums. To achieve these objectives, we first created a theoretical framework of six categories of skill sets required of construction professionals in life cycle of a project. Then, we collected the curriculums of all CONE and CM programs accredited by Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Finally, using a structured data-driven approach, we compared the curriculums of the programs based on the number of credit hours of coursework related to different categories of skills and developed typical CONE and CM curriculums. The results of this study will help higher education institutions to develop new or modify existing construction programs based on the required skills of their graduates and the state-of-the-art curriculums of CONE and CM programs. In particular, the results will help cross-listing common CONE and CM courses in colleges and universities that offer both programs.
