About PMI

"There are many benefits of having a strong relationship with PMI. First, it's a great way for the program to be recognized by potential students worldwide. Right now over 1/3rd of my graduate students are from outside the U.S. And many of them found out about Eastern Michigan University's program through the PMI website."

Director, Master of Science in Construction Management Program
