What is Civil Engineering?
Civil engineering is the engineering of systems within public realms. This could include roads, bridges, gates, tunnels, etc. Depending on where you are employed, you may have to maintain certain structures and design different icons for the city that you are employed in. I am interested in this field because the designs of roads and highways fascinate me.
Starting Salary
The starting pay for a civil engineer today is 52,000 dollars. As you gain more experience in engineering, your pay goes up to 89,000 or, at most, over 120,000 dollars.
What will you do?
On a typical day, you would get up and get your project. This project will be the core of your working hours. If you are not assigned a project, then you give ideas on how to fix certain projects.
Education
The bare minimum education that is needed to become an engineer in this field is a bachelors degree. However, to be competitive in this field, you will want a masters.
