Our curriculum is divided into two "functional cores" that deal with two different philosophies. One is business/management/financial core and it consists of courses taught by both DEWSC and the College of Business faculty. The second core is the technical/ design/engineering courses and it consists of courses taught by DEWSC and Civil Engineering faculty.
We see construction engineering management (CEM) as one of the most promising fields in which CEAS and ASU can achieve uncontested academic excellence. There is a formula at work that makes DEWSC unique among all construction programs and promotes our unlimited potential. Our metropolitan location, engineering endorsement, industry support, economic environment, good leadership, established tradition, concerned Alumni, and dedicated faculty all play a role in the success formula. Research is also a key element in the formula that maintains the Del E. Webb School of Construction’s leadership position as a nationally recognized construction management program. The School seeks alliances in international construction, development of long-term research liaisons with other academic institutions, and increased visibility by making it a major WWW focus in the area of construction research.
Among many DEWSC research topics are: Cemented Soils: excavation and deep foundations, effect of wetting; Green Building; Geotechnical Construction: compaction and demolition; Computer Aided Constructability; Construction equipment productivity; Neural network applications to construction; Women in construction; and the Use of GIS/GPS in concert with construction.
