Undergraduate and graduate research projects in environmentally-conscious construction: Students should be encouraged to take on research projects in construction that have an environmental component. For undergraduate students, class projects (individual or group) and independent studies are suitable. For example, students could analyze the waste management practices of a construction site, following it through perhaps a couple of courses. Graduate student research projects and theses should focus on the identification of and solution to a current or emerging construction issue such as end-oflife responsibility of owners for construction products.
