The Construction Management Program at Oklahoma State University – Oklahoma City (OSU-OKC) boasts a long and established history of assisting young people in entering or advancing within the Construction Industry here in the state. This two-year program offers accessible education tailored to suit students' schedules and locations, all at a cost that ensures a quick return on investment. As the program undergoes a comprehensive redesign to ensure its relevance in the years to come, the concept of a fundraiser to support the Construction Program General Scholarship Fund was conceived.
The Construction Program General Scholarship Fund enables the department to assist students who are in financial need. It not only provides funding for classes and fees but can also be utilized to help cover the cost of textbooks and other necessary supplies. The fund has no restrictions other than its purpose of aiding students in the Construction program. With my tenure approaching 15 years as the program lead, I can attest to the number of students who have found success in the industry and the program's impact on the state's construction sector. Please consider donating to our first scholarship fundraising and helping the next generation of construction professionals get started in their education.
