Abstract
A new and unique undergraduate program is being developed at Purdue University to educate engineers for work in the construction industry. Students selecting the electrical specialty option of the program will combine electric power engineering courses with management courses and with work experience on electrical construction projects to earn the degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering (Construction). Active participation by the construction industry is an essential part of the program. Industry's desire for a more construction-oriented engineering graduate motivated the request for the program and motivates industry's support of summer internship opportunities. The curriculum is designed to provide the desired construction emphasis while offering a quality engineering education. In the electric power field, the result should be capable power engineers, better equipped for engineering practice.
