Careers

Civil engineers plan, design, build, maintain and manage the global civil infrastructure. The civil engineering profession provides a wide variety of enriching career choices that fit different lifestyles. As a civil engineer, you may choose to work for the county office or for a mega city, for public agencies, consulting firms or large corporations, for local companies or multinational firms, in a design office or on a construction site.

Most civil engineers obtain a professional practice license. Many start their own consulting practice or partner with other civil engineers to provide design services. Best of all, civil engineers contribute to projects that are used by people for decades and sometimes even centuries.
