Abstract: |
| External forces drive and shape the Construction Engineering & Management Technology programs that are applying for reaccreditation in the 2015-2016 academic year. Programs will be forced to reframe them in order to gain reaccreditition. The main objective of this work is to describe/discuss all the external forces for the Construction Engineering & Management Technology (CEMT) programs that are in the assessment stage for accreditation or reaccreditation and find if room is left for innovation and/or improvement. The case analyzed is located on a regional campus in Indiana, USA, but similar situations can be seen in other places.
