Abstract

To meet the requirements of the society, the quantity and quality of the graduates majored in construction management should reach a higher level. In order to improve the construction management program to cultivate more competent graduates, a survey was conducted to collect the views from graduates who are from the first batch of certified universities. Based on feedbacks, four potential aspects to be improved in the program are discovered; it is lack of humanistic education, lack of innovation capability development, weakness in the practical section, and weakness in the section of graduation project. Suggestions to improve the program are presented. The findings may be useful for other universities to improve their construction management programs both in China and other developing countries.
