Then how are these grads getting jobs in construction after graduating?
Currently in school for engineering with a CM minor.
Worked a few summers as a steel helper, then eventually landed an interview with a local construction company at the career fair for LSU.
During the interview they mentioned how I had already worked in the field and how that was crucial.
Long story short, I got the job and currently working at DOW while still in school.
So pretty much going to work my arse off until I graduate and let the chips fall where they may in regards to the future.

LSU needs to make an engineering management degree, or at least add this discipline in each engineering major. Basically have pure technical engineers who want to eventually be staff engineers, and then a more managerial side fit those who want that.
Most companies I've worked for offer two promotional paths, one staff and one management. The staff side is slower to move up in and tougher overall, but at most stages the managerial side gets paid more.
