About the Concrete Industry Management (CIM) Program:
In early 1995, the concrete industry began efforts to create the first (and only) four-year degree program in Concrete Industry Management (CIM).

The program teaches students the skills and techniques needed to excel in all segments the concrete and concrete construction industries.
