Over the past years, our advisory board has played a crucial role in shaping the future of the construction management industry. With your expertise and insights, we have made significant strides in promoting best practices, fostering innovation, and addressing key challenges faced by professionals like yourself.
​
Here are some of the key highlights from the activities of the Construction Management Industry Advisory Board:

  1. Networking Opportunities: Our advisory board provides a platform for industry leaders, experts, and professionals to connect and collaborate. By being part of the board, you gain exclusive access to a vast network of influential individuals who can help expand your professional horizons.

  2. Thought Leadership Opportunities: Showcase your expertise and thought leadership by contributing as panelists, guest speakers, and in working groups and committees. Our advisory board members are regularly sought out by our faculty to engage with students in classroom discussions and on office and site visits, providing them with increased visibility and recognition within the construction management community.

  3. Influence and Impact: By actively participating in the advisory board, you have the chance to shape the direction of the industry. Your valuable insights and recommendations are instrumental in assisting with Accreditation, curriculum development, and study abroad programming that have a lasting impact on our construction management students.

  4. Student Recruitment and Curriculum Shaping: Companies part of the Construction Management Industry Advisory Board enjoy the unique benefit of exposing their organization to students for co-op placements. Construction Management CMIAB member expos and networking events give direct access to CM students before the larger job fair events hosted by many universities. By actively engaging with students from Wentworth's Construction Management programs, your company can tap into a pool of talented individuals who are eager to contribute to the industry.

  5. Curriculum Development: Additionally, your contributions to the advisory board help shape the curriculum of Wentworth's Construction Management programs, the ability to shape elective offerings and case studies for capstone as well as graduate programing content, ensuring that future graduates are equipped with the knowledge and skills that align with industry needs.
