Now Accepting RFP's for AGC's Education & Research Foundation Case Study Program

The AGC Education and Research Foundation is committed to the growth, development and encouragement of field research initiatives to enhance the education of construction management students. In support of this vision, the AGC Foundation commissions case studies that will provide today's construction management students with the tools to build the industry's future. Cases written by faculty-contractor teams are based on actual experience and provide students with the opportunity to work through issues in a classroom setting.

The AGC Education and Research Foundation is currently soliciting proposals for the development of educational case studies related to the following topics:

• Crane Safety

• Incorporating Diversity and Inclusion on a Construction Site

• Use of Drones in Construction

All proposals are due no later than 5 p.m. EDT, June 20, 2022. Click here to view the Case Study RFP.

Case Studies published by the foundation are available in the AGC bookstore as free downloads to industry trainers and faculty members. We welcome your feedback, especially regarding your experience using the studies and your students’ response to them.
