Our students gain real-world experience through engagement with industry.
Students from an undergraduate construction science class, COSC 284, Ethics, Etiquette and Communication course, recently attended an Ethics & Etiquette dinner, where they learned social and conversational skills, and how to dine appropriately in a business setting.
According to Susan Quiring, owner of a local dance and etiquette studio in the Bryan-College Station area, it takes just 4-7 seconds to make a first impression and knowledge of how to engage socially in business settings can help students succeed professionally.

Architects, engineers, developers, contractors, and Texas A&M faculty all gathered recently to see the presentation of Ryan Companies’ Robodog. Powered by artificial intelligence, Robodog is designed to perform construction job site supervision by documenting daily progress, identifying safety concerns, and creating live updates. Robodog is currently in a project test in California, and works hard 24/7 while its human counterparts are away.

Construction science undergraduate students in a lab led by Kendall Pouland, cosci lecturer, participated in a collaborative, hands-on group activity involving role-playing as different stakeholders on a large-scale project.
Commonly called "pull planning," students have to organize different tasks for their roles, and sequence them in their groups to accomplish their theoretical project`s milestones. In Thursday`s exercise, students worked to initiate the pouring of a concrete mat foundation for the Texas Children`s Neurological Research Institute.
