Associate in Science Degree, Facility and Sustainable Building Management

Summa cum laude, GPA: 4.0
De Anza College, 2020-03-27

PDF | Return to overview

The interdisciplinary Facility and Sustainable Building Management degree aligns with the requirements set by the facility management industry for qualified facility management professionals. Students will be educated and provided on-the-job work experience. Students will understand the cross-functional aspects of a successful facility manager and will be further educated on the roles facility managers play, the basics of building operations and maintenance, building sustainability and work management within the facility manager job function. The International Facility Management Association (IFMA) estimates the average age of practicing facility managers is more than 49 years old. IFMA also forecasts that 30% to 50% of practicing facility managers will retire within the next 10 years. This indicates a pending employment gap and a need for younger, well-educated and qualified facility management professionals. IFMA has turned to California community colleges to help fill this gap. The Facility and Sustainable Building Management certificates and degrees will prepare students for careers in building sustainability, space planning, environmental health and safety, energy efficiency, sustainable landscaping, real estate, property management, human resources and other business-related job functions such as marketing, sales and accounting.

Focuses on the business aspects of making buildings productive, efficient, sustainable, and environmentally safe by implementing effective building operations and maintenance procedures, automated building monitoring and management systems, strategic facilities planning, total cost of ownership and insuring employee safety and security by overseeing and managing effective workplace communications and cross organizational collaboration.

There's an unfilled demand for over 3,500 trained Facility Management professionals in the SF Bay Area. Take your classes in the very FIRST California Community College and State Accredited Facility Management AS degree program and the ONLY Facility Management Degree Program in California listed in the International Facility Management Association's (IFMA) Academic Registry. A well paid and rewarding job is already waiting for you.
