What is civil engineering

civil engineering deals with the designing, planning,

construction, and management of infrastructures such as
highways, bridges, airports, railroads, buildings, dams, and
utilities.

Construction engineers are very unique because they both could

be labeled as civil or construction engineers.

Differences between civil and

construction

The difference between a construction engineer and civil

engineer is only at the educational level.

Civil engineering students concentrate more on the design work.

This requires them to take a lot of design courses.

This is required because it allows you to understand both the

design functions and building requirements needed to design and
build today's buildings
