Construction Management
The learning community will be joining a mentoring group, and you will begin exploring all the construction industry has to offer through your course work, through site visits to construction projects and through your network of friends and faculty.
Eligibility
- First-year beginning students admitted to the Purdue Polytechnic Institute with a major in Construction Management
- First-year beginning students admitted to Exploratory Studies interested in exploring the Construction Management program
Residential Component
- Optional. The location of learning community housing will be determined based on the incoming size and needs of the learning community.
- A signed housing contract is required to apply to this learning community. Once a housing contract is completed, you will indicate your learning community housing preference within the learning community application. Applications received by the priority deadline will be considered first.
- If you want to be placed with a preferred roommate and be admitted to a learning community with an optional residential component, both you and your roommate must apply (and be admitted) to a learning community with an optional residential component. Students admitted to learning communities with a required residential component cannot be paired with students admitted to learning communities with an optional residential component.
- For specific question regarding learning communities, email learningcommunities@purdue.edu.
- Completing a housing contract is a separate process from applying to a learning community. If you have questions about housing, contact University Residences (https://www.housing.purdue.edu/) at housing@purdue.edu.
