ASC International Proceedings of the Annual Conference

Aims and Scope

TheĀ ASC International Proceedings of the Annual Conference provides for disseminating research that enhances and improves our teaching and learning processes within construction education and construction practice. Papers submitted to the Annual Proceedings contribute to understanding the issues, problems, and research associated with the construction industry and education. The Annual Proceedings are published once each year for the international conference.

The Annual Proceedings provide for reporting research, which communicates new knowledge about qualitative or quantitative phenomena. The term “research” can be defined as any effort of careful, systematic, patient study and investigation in some field of knowledge undertaken to discover or establish facts and principles. More precisely, a research paper should communicate confidence that particular knowledge claims about phenomena are true or false. Methodologies and paper elements are identical to the International Journal of Construction Education and Research (IJCER) guidelines.

The scope of the Annual Proceedings embraces works in education and industry content through a broad spectrum of topics in the built environment, including but not limited to:
