Career Prospects
Civil Engineering is considered as one of the oldest branches of engineering. Each civil engineering project comes with its own set of challenges which require meticulous planning, creativity, adaptability and problem solving skills to develop infrastructure. Civil engineers will always remain in demand as development of infrastructure i.e. construction of buildings, skyscrapers, roads, highways, dams, bridges, water treatment plants, sewage treatment plants etc. to name a few, rely on their expertise and talent. Civil engineering can offer some of the most lucrative jobs in the technology sector. Another advantage is that civil engineers can also apply for IT jobs after learning how to operate certain civil engineering software.
Civil Engineering Career in Government Sector
Working in the government sector not just comes with stability and good salary but also with the factor of job security. Indian Engineering Services is one of the sought after field as it provides almost equal benefits as offered to IAS officers and Civil Servants.
Civil Engineering Career in Private Sector
In private sector, jobs for civil engineers are offered in construction and design. A civil engineer with a good knowledge of CAD Software, Finite Element Analysis, and along with other skill-set fits perfectly in an organization.
