Thinking about a four-year degree in Construction Management at UNC-Charlotte or other institutions? If the answer is yes then you need to schedule an appointment with Dr. Kao Vang immediately. Students interested in transferring should not take any CMT courses at RCCC until consultation with the Dr. Kao Vang or other faculty from Construction Management Technology. Many CMT courses do not transfer to four-year institutions and for this reason a consultation is required to ensure students are not taking courses that do not benefit a transfer.
If you plan on transferring, consult your four-year institution of choice immediately. It is critical to know what courses your four-year institution will accept before you start taking courses at RCCC. The last thing you want to do is complete a two-year degree at RCCC and have credits not transfer to your four-year institution of choice.
An example of why you want to check with your four-year institution of choice is provided by the link below. Pay attention to the courses that UNC-Charlotte will allow students to transfer in from a two-year associate degree program. Note some of these courses are not offered at RCCC. In essence, the courses listed below under UNC-Charlotte Course Prerequisites are only courses that UNC-Charlotte's Construction Management Program will accept from community colleges such as RCCC. RCCC offers English, Algebra and Trigonometry but does not offer courses such as Construction Methods, Construction Materials, Statics, Surveying, and Strengths of Materials. Note each community college's Construction Management Technology degree will vary on the course offerings.
Students must have satisfactorily completed the following subjects in their two-year associate degree program:
English Composition and/or Technical Writing (6 semester hours)
Algebra and Trigonometry (3)
Differential and Integral Calculus (6)
Analytical, Physical, or Environmental Science with Lab (8)
Macro Economics (3)
Construction Methods
Construction Materials
Statics
Strength of Materials
Construction Surveying
Computer-Aided Drafting
Environmental Technology, Hydraulics, or Hydrology
Engineering Technology Computing Applications
