Introduction

 As a potential civil engineer, the dream is to develop quality designs and constructions of

public works such as roads, bridges, airports, sewage systems, railways, dams, and

maintenance of the physical environment of structural components of buildings.

 The blending of different boundaries, big data technologies, and professionalism

transform how civil engineers examine problems and provide effective solutions to

design and construction.

 The paper will examine the use of probability and statistics in improving the outcome of

various phases of civil engineering projects and the importance of probability and

statistics literacy in making my employability.

Applications of Statistics and Probability in Civil Engineering

 Site selection

 Designing and Proposing Designs of Buildings

 Environmental Assessment

 Planning and management of construction

Probability and Statistics literacy will Enhance Your Employability

 Proficiency in probability and statistics will increase civil engineers' potential to get a

good job after graduating.

 In most civil engineering job interviews, skills in probability and statistics are highly

considered because they are important factors used in determining whether one

understands what designs and construction needs.

 Therefore, to increase your level of employability as a civil engineer, it is important to

have adequate skills and knowledge of statistics and probability that help determine soil

parameters and other factors necessary in designing the foundation.

Conclusion

 Some of the applications of probability and statistics in civil engineering include site

selection, designing and proposing buildings, conducting environment assessment, and

planning and managing constructions.

 For these applications, proficiency in probability and statistics will increase the potential

for civil engineers graduates to enhance their employability.
