Created by the Mississippi Construction Education Foundation, this video showcases the inaugural iBuild construction summer camp at Mississippi (2019).
The Mississippi Construction Education Foundation (MCEF) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote careers, recruit capable individuals, and train a quality workforce for the construction industry in Mississippi. In 1996, a coalition of construction associations formed MCEF. Ten major trade associations are represented on MCEF’s board:

Modular Building Project
Students in the first-year Mississippi State University Building Construction Science studios learn about construction with a modular building project. Students go through the entire process of designing, researching and exploring materials and fabrication methods, planning construction, and building every element of the structures. Students are also responsible for creating a comprehensive document explaining the entire design and construction process. The buildings are auctioned off each year to raise funds for supplies and materials each year.
I want to transfer to Mississippi State University. I interested in a Bachelor of Science degree in building construction science.
Admissions
Apply to Mississippi State University and indicate “building construction science” as your preferred major.
Note: Students wishing to enroll in the first building construction science studio must have successfully completed College Trigonometry or have a math sub-score of 24 or greater on the ACT.
Brasfield & Gorrie Competition
The Brasfield & Gorrie Student Design Competition is an annual interdisciplinary design competition composed of teams of students from each department in the College of Architecture, Art and Design (CAAD) at Mississippi State University. The goal is to expose students to an interdisciplinary project delivery system to facilitate the design of a structure that incorporates sustainability, innovation and LEED construction principles. It is the goal of the competition to overcome preconceived ideas of the roles traditionally assumed by the various disciplines in the college.
