Jason McFadden

Jason McFadden is currently in his fifth year of study in the Architectural Engineering program, specializing in the construction management option at The Pennsylvania State University. He will graduate in December 2006 with an Integrated Bachelor and Master of Architectural Engineering degree.

Over the past three years, Jason has worked on multiple construction projects with Turner Construction Company and Barton Malow Company performing various tasks to further his construction management abilities. The multiple internships have been invaluable learning experiences which will help him as he begins his career. Currently, Jason is working on the Penn State Ballpark project at University Park which is scheduled to be completed summer 2006.

As part of his extra-curricular activities, Jason finds time to march with the Penn State Blue Band along with participating in the volleyball and basketball pep bands. He is also currently serving as vice-president for the student chapter of the Partnership for Achieving Construction Excellence (PACE).

In April 2004, Jason successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering exam which will allow him to obtain an engineer-in-training status upon graduation. He hopes to obtain a professional engineering license during his career as well as earning a Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.). Before graduating in December 2006, Jason also hopes to become a LEED Accredited Professional by successfully passing the U.S.G.B.C. LEED Professional Accredidation Exam. Upon graduation, Jason will continue working with Barton Malow Company in the Eastern or Southern region as a Project Engineer.

The Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio (CPEP) is a web-based project and information center. It contains material produced for a year-long Senior Thesis class. Its purpose, in addition to providing central storage of individual assignments, is to foster communication and collaboration between student, faculty consultant, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines provided by the Department of Architectural Engineering.
