Heavy civil construction is the part of the construction industry that builds dams, bridges, treatment plants, industrial, power facilities, heavy highway, and other infrastructure needs. This
part of the industry covers 30-35% of the companies that recruit California State University, Chico construction management and civil engineering students. The heavy construction industry needs more
graduates. Currently, construction management programs in California meet only approximately 30-40% of the demand in heavy construction. The Minor in Heavy Construction Scholarship is made possible donations from multiple benefactors including generous gifts from the Beavers Charitable Trust.
