Choosing a Great Construction Management School for Your Associate Degree
Your choice of construction management for getting your associate degree school matters. Important measures of a quality construction management program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
Quality Overall Is Important
A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To take this into account we consider a school's overall Best Colleges ranking which itself looks at a collection of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.
Average Earnings
One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of associate graduates during the early years of their career. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their associate degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to construction management students as compared to other majors.
Major Demand - How many other construction management students want to attend this school to pursue a associate degree.
Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
Student Debt - How much debt construction management students go into to obtain their associate degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized construction management related body.
Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for construction management students working on their associate degree.
Since picking the right college can be one of the most important decisions of your life, we've developed the Best Construction Management Associate Degree Schools in the Southwest Region ranking, along with many other major-related rankings, to help you make that decision.
