Civil Engineering

Civil engineering deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including public works such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, airports, sewerage systems, pipelines, structural components of buildings, and railways .
What Civil Engineers Do
Civil engineers design, build, and supervise infrastructure projects and systems.
Work Environment
Civil engineers generally work in a variety of locations and conditions.
It is common for them to split their time between working in an office and working outdoors at construction sites so that they can monitor operations or solve problems onsite.
Most work full time.
How to Become a Civil Engineer
Civil engineers need a bachelors degree in civil engineering, in one of its specialties, or in civil engineering technology.
They typically need a graduate degree and licensure for promotion to senior positions.
Although licensure requirements vary by state, civil engineers usually must be licensed if they provide services directly to the public.
Pay
The median annual wage for civil engineers was $88,050 in May 2021.
Job Outlook
Employment of civil engineers is projected to grow 8 percent from 2020 to 2030, about as fast as the average for all occupations.
About 25,000 openings for civil engineers are projected each year, on average, over the decade.
Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.

Civil engineering courses
If you study civil engineering at undergraduate level, youll learn to apply mathematics and scientific knowledge (particularly physics) to real-life situations and problems that arise from creating and maintaining structures, taking into account environmental, financial, legal and ethical considerations.
At its core, civil engineering is a combination of many scientific specialisms, including mechanics, hydraulics, geotechnics (using knowledge of the earths crust to solve construction problems), materials science and statistical analysis.
As such, study of these foundational elements will feature heavily in the early years of civil engineering degrees.
