Civil Engineers
From 4,500-year-old Egyptian pyramids and ancient Roman aqueducts to today's
monolithic bridges and giant skyscrapers, civil engineering has a long and impressive
history. Civil engineers design and maintain many of the structures around us-
including buildings, roads, bridges, and the systems that move water and waste for our
communities. For every project, civil engineers must meet regulatory standards,
prioritize safety, consider environmental risks and the endurance of materials, and
anticipate costs for building as well as long-term maintenance. From entry-level
positions to project leads, this is a team-based career that requires continuous
problem solving. It's typical for civil engineers to specialize. Construction engineers
manage large construction projects. Geotechnical engineers ensure the solid
foundation of engineering projects like tunnels and tall buildings. Structural engineers
design and evaluate plans for major buildings, bridges, and dams and make sure they
are built to last... Transportation engineers plan roadway construction and
maintenance, as well as design airports, subways, and metro transit systems. Civil
engineers often work outdoors at construction sites to monitor progress and
troubleshoot any problems that come up. Most work full time. They need a bachelor's
degree in civil engineering, one of its specialties, or in civil engineering technology. A
Professional Engineering license is required for many jobs. Civil engineering is a
complex field, but it's one that leaves a lasting mark.
