- Hi everyone! Today I talk about the different careers you can pursue after graduating with a Construction Management degree. I studied construction management with the idea that I would build my own house one day. However, I didn't know at first that the major was a very general one and there are lots of various paths to pursue after college. Hope this video helps!

I am from Kazakhstan. Video is very useful to understand what job you gone to do
Thank you. Comments like these keep me motivated!
Dude this is the exact video I was looking for... Keep it up man, you got yourself a new subscriber!
Thanks Josef! Comments like these are gold!
@@TreyTan on average how long would you have to work as a project engineer before you can become an Assistant project Manager
My mother went to college for construction management with emphasis on hand and power tool. I’m going to attempt to do the same. This video is exactly what I’m looking for, information :))
I'm glad you know what you're looking for. Hand and power tool is a component of safety which will allow you to one day work as a safety manager. However, be prepared that the salary won't be as high as other professions within the industry. Hope that helps!
what licensing should I look at after an MS in CM. (PE) ? Am I even eligible to take the exam
Looking to shift to Construction Management and working on learning Revit/BIM as well. Currently a welder, but have done everything from frame houses to photography to the Marine Corps over the years. Any advice on a viable career path for someone wanting to break their back less and manage more as well as someone who loves to design and model just as much as build and lead?
Love your videos, man. Sub’d and liked for sure!
There’s a tech school near me that has both Construction Management Associates and a Architectural Engineer Technician Associates (that teaches CAD/Revit/BIM) but the years school takes I feel I could learn faster on the job and on my own time… in your experience does the Associates Degree really stand out to an employer or just the experience and certificates/etc?
Thank you for any insight!
@@chazlyle41 Sorry for the late reply mate, been pretty busy lately. If you love to build and lead I would say pursuing a path in construction project management would be ideal and eventually become a Project Manager. However, if you are more on the technical side then BIM would be a good fit. Personally I think employers look for experience + certificates more so than an associates degree. However, you always want to keep learning and be in continuous improvement which is why if i were you i would try and take on the associate degree while trying to land an internship in BIM, and after graduating, you'll have both the degree plus the internship experience to kick off your career in BIM. Hope that helps.
@@TreyTan Hey, no worries!! You’ll never hear me being update that someone spends their time OUTSIDE the internet :)
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! It’s been my experience over the years as well that real world experience and certifications that qualify you are more important than a degree in trades. I know as a welder every construction company owners simply wants to know if you have the certs they need to finish building legally, that’s it.
I think I’ll stick to the work experience over degree track, thank you for helping me along my journey trying to provide for my family. Have a good one, man.
I’m a aspiring construction manager in South Africa , I wish I was staying abroad , seems like pay is good overseas
I realized there’s quite a bit of South Africans here in America - particularly in San Francisco. Perhaps you could try to maneuver your way around and land yourself a good and well paying career here. All the best!
Do you have construction management degree or civil engineering degrees
that's the most funny description on OE
I’m pursing a construction management degree also a minor in computer science is there any benefits in having knowledge in programming with a construction management job?
Absolutely anything with complicated machinery and electrical. It's one of the hardest to get good at but no one really wants to do it so you can make a lot of money.
What roles should I be looking for in construction with a Project Management degree, I served in the Air Force attached to a CE unit doing hvac could i possibly fill a field engineer role and work my way to project manager?
Yes you can. But given your background I’d say your best bet would be to start with a HVAC contractor and after a few years you can hop over to a GC if you’d like or stay in the company and work your way up to PM level. All the best!
Building surveyor?
Love the video info. PLEASE turn down the horrible background music, though. It's way overpowering.
Hey trey tan..!! Hope you are doing well. I am a new viewer to your channel, and I must say it was an incredible experience with information. My question is, can the cost controller be a promising/ rewarding career in terms of job opening as well as salary point of view.
It would be a great help if you tell me how many levels up (entry , then junior then senior n like so on) there in the cost control engineer
Thanks for checking out the channel. So first of all, cost controller is a great career to have. I’m going to assume a starting salary of 65k. You’ll go from assistant cost controller > cost controller / cost manager > senior cost manager > associate director > director. It should look something like this
@@TreyTan thank you so much for information 😁
Hay quá
What type of pay jump will you expect from PE to PM? Let’s say for a example I start at 62,000k as a PE, then I go to Senior PE - PM -Senior PM - operations manager?
Project/Field Engineer are entry level positions, the market right now where I am located is around 67k-75k depending the size of the contractor. PMs can make anywhere above 90k depending the size of the project and contractor you are working with. Hope this helps.
@@brycehilt858 we’re a pretty large company, we have a couple projects that are in the hundred of millions of dollars going on in downtown Indianapolis and Bloomington. But yes it did thank you!
Yeah Bryce is right. PE is usually 65k and PMs are around 95k to 105k.
Which one is better? BS in construction management or AS in construction management.
Bachelors 100%
Going to need to make an updated video salerys are out of date otherwise tons of super valuable information. There isn't anyone in my graduating class that has received an offer for less than 75k and were are just a small tech school in vermont. I just accepted an offer for about 100k.
Wow that is a lot of money and you are right, it’s probably slightly outdated at this point. May I ask if this 100k position was for project engineer? Or a trade job like electrician?
@@TreyTan entry lvl project engineer position
Yep, in my area they are hiring project engineers starting at 85k -100k based on your experience and knowledge.
Where are you located? I accepted a $70k offer as a PE in Georgia three months ago.
is it similar to a construction engineering degree?
Yes, but with an emphasis on project management more than load calculations.
Well a certification from construction management get me a good job?
I suppose. If you want a higher salary, go for computer science.
I’m in college (sophomore) majoring in CM.. I always get a internship each summer… do you think it’s possible to start out with $68-$70k? Also any tips to get higher salary? OSHA certified? Being bilingual? Other stuff?
hey whats your technic to getting internships
Are your internships paid, if so how much?
@@timmybec06 yes mine ranged from $18-20 Im a jr now so I’m trying to get a one for summer 2024!
I’m actually working in construction and doing school online for CM. So getting both field experience and school is important for me, or at least helping me understand what I’m doing. There are some things I am applying to work.
General contractor?
Yes General Contractor. However, you can also choose to join a subcontractor company. Kinda depends on your personal preference.
