Construction Project Scheduling and Control

X463 (2 semester units in Civ. & Env. Eng.)

A requirement in the Certificate Program in Construction Management

Tighter schedules and more restricted budgets increasingly characterize the construction industry. Owners are more sophisticated than they have ever been, desiring more and more complicated, state-of-the-art facilities. Understanding and applying scheduling and control to today's construction projects are essential to successful construction management.

Intended for designers, engineers, and project managers working in the construction industry, this course introduces the theory and practice of scheduling and control. Project scheduling emphasizes network-based schedules, such as critical path management (CPM), network calculations, critical paths, resource scheduling, probabilistic scheduling, and computer applications. Project control emphasizes goals, the flow of information, time and cost control, and change management. Strategic approaches complement practical applications throughout the course as students learn to understand and develop network-based schedules as well as to understand and apply the project control process. Enrollment is limited.
