One of the realities of construction industry is that workers go where the jobs go. While there are numerous opportunities to work here in Arizona, the state of Utah is in the middle of a construction boom, especially in the higher education and healthcare specialties. A recent Utah Business news article listed some of the more high-profile projects currently under construction.

In Higher Education  

Most college campuses in the state of Utah have at least one building under construction. The projects currently going on include:

• USU Clinical Services Building
• USU Space Dynamics Laboratory
• Crocker Science Center conversion (University of Utah)
• Carolyn and Kem Gardner Building (University of Utah)
• Dixie Applied Technology Campus
• A new business department building at Southern Utah University
