Overview
Director's Message


Moving into an executive position in architectural, engineering, construction, or real estate development organizations requires far more than technical skills.  Being an effective leader entails complementing technical knowledge with real-world business insight.

Program Director Shelley Finnigan

Simply put, no other executive management program offers the same level of customized curriculum and intense focus on the design and construction industries as the Northwestern University EMDC program.

Whether you are preparing the next generation of ownership for your business, providing your top talent with the tools they need to move into leadership positions, developing a succession plan for a family business, serving in the armed forces, or transitioning from the military, the Executive Management for Design and Construction MS degree program at Northwestern University will propel you toward your goal.
