In settingup the new program, the author relied on what he knew and was he also knew was successful.The new program was patterned after the program on the previous campus that he had attendedand taught at. While the planning took less than a year, the bureaucracy took another four years.Finally, in the Fall of 2009, a brand new Bachelor of Science in Construction Engineering andManagement Technology was now offered.
