Civil engineers plan and design bridges and tunnels, as well as highways, airfields, harbors, water and sewage systems, and buildings. They also supervise the construction of such projects to ensure that they are built according to carefully drafted plans. civil engineering is such a broad and varied field that most engineers specialize in one area.

Some of the main specializations include structural, construction, hydraulics, sanitary, environmental, transportation, and soil mechanics engineering.

Structural engineers are experts in building structures safely and efficiently. They work with architects to design large buildings, bridges, and tunnels. Construction engineers supervise the actual construction of projects once they are designed. Civil engineers who work in hydraulics design canals, flood-control systems, and irrigation systems

QUALIFICATION
A bachelor's degree in civil engineering from an accredited school is essential to enter the field.
