Construction Technology This specialized approach to training provides a broad background for a technical construction career and develops a sense of professionalism and leadership. Close coordination between industry and education gives the students excellent preparation for employment in technical and supervisory positions in the building industry. Tradesman, estimator, sales representative, and foreman are just a few of the career choices for graduates. With additional training and experience, supervisory positions are possible directing the work of many diverse trades. Project superintendents and owner-operated businesses are definite possibilities for the dedicated student willing to complete the A.A.S. degree and sufficient on-the-job training. The home building industry is one of the largest and fastest growing industries in the country. The Construction Technology program at Weber State College provides a broad knowledge of labor, materials, and construction procedures to meet the needs of this dynamic growth industry.
