Description

The civil engineer applies a wide spectrum of engineering, scientific, and economic principles to plan, design, and oversee a wide variety of infrastructure projects which improve the quality of life, protect the environment, and facilitate economic growth. These projects include roads and highways, railroads, mass transit systems, airports, bridges, buildings, structures, harbors, flood control and drainage works, water supply, treatment and distribution systems, wastewater treatment and reuse systems, irrigation systems, pipelines, renewable energy systems, and power plants. Civil Engineers are integral part of these projects from planning, designing, and construction to their health assessment, maintenance, and retrofit.
