    WHY THIS BOOK BELONGS IN YOUR CURRICULUM

    Preparing the Next Generation of Cost Leaders

    The infrastructure sector is undergoing a historic transformation — from zero‑emission facilities to advanced manufacturing and mission‑critical capital programs. Students entering the field need more than traditional estimating and measurement skills. They need a modern, systems‑level understanding of cost governance, risk, benchmarking, and project delivery.

    Cost Management for Zero-Emission & Advanced Manufacturing Infrastructure provides a practical, industry‑aligned foundation that bridges the gap between academic theory and real‑world project execution.
