2021-22 Unit Plan
Construction

Mission Statement

The Construction program educates, 培训和准备学生,以满足建筑行业的期望,获得技能和准备作为可持续建筑劳动力的一部分.
建筑技术项目也是进入建筑管理的跳板, Concrete Industry Management, and Engineering Programs at the CSU and UC level.

Program Description

建筑专业旨在帮助学生达到建筑行业工作的入门级要求.  课程有足够的广度,让学生追求职业生涯在各种建筑行业和行业雇用建筑工人. 课程可以通过以下任何一种方式安排:成绩证书课程:几乎所有的课程都与进入就业密切相关. 副学士学位课程:就业技能与通识教育相结合. 请注意,建筑项目是根据之前的建筑检测技术(BIT)项目修订的,因此目前只有有限的数据可用.

Student Learning/Administrative Unit Outcomes

学生们在远程教育中表现不佳,在CTE课程中也表现不佳.


Standards/Goals for Student Achievement (Instruction Departments)

Only one year of data available, it is obvious that the program needs to grow

我们有很多学生因为某种原因没有申请证书


Standards/Goals for Student Achievement (All Other Departments)

我们正专注于招聘和营销我们的项目和学院作为一个整体,以增加入学率.


Strategic Direction

我们正在努力招收更多样化的学生群体,以更好地代表大学和行业.


Program Review

建筑技术(CNST)以前存在于建筑检测技术(BIT)中,该技术于2012年终止. No subsequent program review for CNST has been performed. 为了建立这个项目,我们从形成的行业咨询中收集了大量数据.


Department Goals

Recruit, recruit, and recruit!


Future Development Strategies

Strategy 1 - Provide high-quality full-time faculty

保持高质量的全职教师队伍,并扩大项目以解决当地问题, regional, state, 以及国家对熟练建筑工人和建筑技术专业学生的需求.
