University of Florida's Rinker School of Construction Management

On Friday, November 4, 2016, Bryan Light of Brick Southeast held a hands-on masonry lab for Dr. James Sullivan at University of Florida.

​The MEF/MAF holds an annual hands-on masonry lab for the students of Dr. Sullivan's Undergraduate Program at the Rinker School of Construction Management.   The M. E. Rinker, Sr., School of Construction Management at the University of Florida prepares graduates for careers in the construction industry. The core curriculum includes a mix of technical, managerial, and business courses. Graduates receive a comprehensive education including theory and practical applications, and they are fully prepared for their responsibilities in the construction.
