Most large corporate enterprises have individuals within their organizational structure charged with the duties of planning and operating the physical facility that houses the organization and its operations. For many companies, these facilities are the largest part of the corporate assets, and their management has become a critical corporate function. There is a growing recognition of the need for sophisticated skills and knowledge in performing this function. Today, the field of facility management is an emerging profession with strong potential for future growth and development.
The Philadelphia Chapter of the International Facility Management Association has joined with the College to develop the Facility Management Technology program. The goal is to provide educational programs for the continuing education and professionalization of current facility managers, and for the basic preparation of individuals seeking entry to this field.
The program combines studies in technical topics such as building systems, and planning and design documentation, with business and management related course work. There is also an opportunity for specialization or advanced study through the Facility Management career electives, as well as the opportunity for initial career exposure through a CSEL/internship.
Upon successful completion of this program, students should be able to:
Interpret architectural drawings and specifications.
