- Provide hands-on and experiential learning activities incorporating construction drawings, estimating, scheduling, computer software, and materials/methods.
- Educate the participants on safety principles, project management, and other key topics in the industry.
- Encourage and educate the participants on professional career options available in construction.
- Offer the participants the opportunity to interact and collaborate with Kent State University faculty, industry professionals and current students.
- Provide students with the experience of visiting an active construction site.
