This program offers the students a unique combination of management, design and hands-on experience. Through a series of construction management courses, students learn about the construction industry as a whole and analyze the interrelationships of the various organizations within the industry. 

In the laboratory, students master blueprint reading, quantity take-offs and the estimating of residential and commercial projects.

Graduates qualify for positions such as construction managers, supervisors, building inspectors, contractors, field clerks, purchasing agents, surveyors, expediters, estimators, and construction materials salespeople.  

The Building Management and Maintenance curriculum prepares students to assume key positions in fields of facility operations and property management. There is a great need for highly trained individuals to operate, manage and maintain various kinds of facilities both locally and nationally. The curriculum is unique among New York State colleges in providing this technical and managerial training. 

The student will gain knowledge in the following areas: operation of a building’s mechanical system; overview of the building trades; and managerial/supervisory skills and business practices. Our program aims to develop skills which are needed for planning, scheduling, and controlling the efficient operation and repair of state-of-the-art equipment and buildings. 

Positions our graduates may acquire include facilities manager, director of building services, building inspector, building automation controls technician, building engineer, property manager, building mechanic, and sales representative for building services and products. 

In this program students are presented with a solid foundation in electrical and electronics theory along with hands-on laboratory experience. Computer simulation and applications are an integral part of the curriculum.

Graduates find employment in electronics, utility industries and other fields requiring electrical and electronics technicians. Our graduates may select from a variety of job types including electronic repair, prototyping, testing, field service, industrial sales, maintenance, customer support and technical writing. 

The Electrical Construction and Maintenance Electrician program provides in-depth instruction in the theories and principles of electricity. Principles of operation for electrical devices and equipment and correct and safe operation of tools are covered.

You will study and learn to interpret and apply the requirements of the National Electric Code for designing electrical layouts, installation methods, and the maintenance, troubleshooting and repair of electrical circuits and equipment.

Practical (hands-on) application of classroom theory is the main emphasis of the laboratory work. Approximately one-third of lab time is spent on actual work sites, gaining real-life work experience.
