What former Building Engineering Management participants had to say about the program:
- "The course has given me a different perspective of an engineering department's role and the greater purpose it serves within the real estate industry!"
- "It helped further my knowledge of commercial real estate and made me want to engage with my supervisors more based upon the learning we discussed while in class."
- "BEM101 was very helpful in aiding my understanding of general building operations outside of my day-to-day tasks."
- "I left with a better understanding of how building operations plays a key role in aiding the bottom line."
- "There was so much great information provided with enough flexibility in the course offerings that better allowed me to schedule the class into my workday, and not my workday around my class. Thank you, BOMA!"
