Civil and Geomatics Engineering and Construction
290 2001-2002 California State University, Fresno General Catalog
employment at the professional level in the
discipline of construction and its related
field. The program places emphasis on the
acquisition of both fundamental theoreti-cal
knowledge and the application of cur-rent
practices in the field.
The program strives to provide assistance
to the student in the development of per-sonal
qualities including human sensitiv-ity,
disciplined reasoning, and communi-cations.
Educational Objectives of the
Instructional Program
• Provide students with the ability to rec-ognize
and independently diagnose con-struction
related problems accurately,
develop creative alternatives, and imple-ment
practical and effective solutions.
• The students will demonstrate the abil-ity
to plan, schedule and control work
activities, motivate and provide accurate
and timely constructive alternatives, and
implement practical and effective solu-tions.
• Provide students with the ability to ap-ply
construction related techniques,
skills, and tools to construction materi-als
as necessary for the managed con-struction
project.
• Provide students with the ability to un-derstand
technical issues related to the
fields of architecture, engineering, busi-ness
and construction accounting, and
finance. Work effectively and efficiently
with personnel from these disciplines to
properly apply related fundamentals,
techniques, and procedures.
• Provide students with the ability to ap-ply
basic construction related design
theory within the areas of structural,
mechanical, electrical, thermodynamics,
civil, and soil mechanics.

being used to satisfy the General Education
requirement of 51 units.
Advising Notes
1. Courses in mathematics, the physical
sciences, or construction taken CR/NC
are not counted toward fulfillment of
degree requirements in construction.
2. Since the construction major curricu-lum
is very demanding, some students,
especially those not fully prepared in
mathematics, chemistry, and/or physics
may take more than the traditional four
years to graduate.
3. The upper-division writing skills re-quirement
can be met by passing the
university examination or by completing
I E 182W with a letter grade of C or
higher no sooner than the term in which
60 units of coursework are completed.
4. Other construction specialties may be
developed under department advisement.

Construction Management Minor
Students from interrelated disciplines will
acquire professional and specialized con-struction
knowledge and skills. Prepara-tion
for participation in the building-re-lated
professions leads to careers in solving
the infrastructure needs of society and the
environment.
Units
Required Core courses ..................... 15
CONST 5, 10, 42, 50, 120

The student will select two addi-tional
construction courses in con-sultation
with a faculty adviser.
Emphasis may be placed upon a
variety of specialization areas.
Total ................................................... 21
Note: The Construction Management Mi-nor
also requires a 2.0 GPA and 6 upper-division
units in residence.
