I think Civil Engineer is a cool,boring, and fun job.It’s cool because you can use alot of cool stuff.It’s is boring because somtime you have to do boring math.It is fun because you can make the tallest buliding in the world and you could work with fun people.

 

To become a civil engineer you need to complete bachelor degree in civil engineering or one of its specialties.  A program by ABET is needed in order to gain licensure,which is needed to work as a professional engineer.  Bachelor’s degree programs in civil engineering or civil engineering technology include coursework in math, statistics, engineering mechanics, system and fluid dynamics, among other courses,depending on the specialty. Courses include a mix of traditional classroom learning,working in a lab,and fieldwork. The Important Qualities Civil engineer need are decision making skills, leadership skills , math skills, problem solving skills, writing skills, and organizational skills.

 

Civil engineer generally work indoors in offices.However,they sometime spend time outdoors at construction sites so they can monitor operations or solve problems at the site.Sometimes civil engineer travel to work on large engineering projects in other countries.Civil engineer work full time.Engineers who direct projects may need to work extra hours to monitor progress of the overall projects,to ensure that the design meets requirements, and to ensure that deadlines are met.They design,construct,supervise,operate,and maintain large construction projects and systems,including roads,buildings,airports,tunnels,dams,bridges and system for water supply and sewage treatment.Many civil engineers work in  design,construction,research,and education.

 

Civil engineer get paid a lot but they’re different type of engineer who  work for different people.Nonresidential construction get paid the least.They get paid $73,740 dollar in a year.Federal government,excluding postal service get paid the most.They get paid $89,440 dollar in a year.But most engineer get paid $86,200 a year or even more.


Civil Engineer will be here 50 years because they build building,road,bridges,and maybe they can make something that help us in the future that why they will be here in 50 years.There’s nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind. – Bill Nye
