Abstract
The employment positions of graduates majoring in construction engineering management are the basic management positions of construction engineering. However, in recent years, graduates are unable to adapt to specific positions. This study analyzed the influencing factors of competency of construction engineering management graduates, and put forward suggestions for improvement. The objective of the study was to explore the influence of professional theoretical knowledge, professional skills, work ability, and personal qualities on the competency of construction engineering management graduates.
This study adopted the quantitative research method and applied the iceberg theory. The questionnaires were distributed during the survey period and 136 valid questionnaires were recovered. This study found that professional theoretical knowledge, professional skills, work ability, and personal qualities have a significant positive influence on the competency of construction engineering management graduates. For recommendations, the improvement strategy should focus on the following aspects: 1) Reconstruct the talent training system, appropriately increase the class time of professional theoretical courses, and update the course teaching content in a timely manner; 2) Develop in-depth cooperation between schools and enterprises to jointly compile talent training programs and innovate talent training models; 3) Encourage students to participate in various skill competitions at all levels and strengthen the intensity of technical services; 4) Use case analysis, role playing, etc., to strengthen the sense of responsibility, hard-working and pressure-resistant education.
