Steel Market Update received a surprise the other day when Construction Management Degree (www.ConstructionManagementDegree.com), a website dedicated as an online resource for students looking to expand their education within the management segment of the construction industry, recognized SMU as one of the top 100 construction-related websites online.
The list was compiled as a service to the group’s readers, who are mostly students or prospective students in construction management programs. Construction Management Degree reported, “We hope the array of successful businesses in diverse specialties of construction will help them explore career options and decide what’s right for them, while also serving as a shining example of what can be accomplished in the field.“
The Construction Management Degree students recognized Steel Market Update’s unique way of looking at materials, trends and costs and their impact on the construction industry.
