Course_Introduction
Civil Engineering, one of the oldest  engineering discipline after military engineering deals with designing, supervision and construction activities of public and pvt. works  and offers a multitude of challenging career opportunities.  Architecture is a highly competitive and multi-disciplinary profession which involves a variety of tasks at work. This is a field which covers various fields including spatial design, aesthetics, safety management, material management etc. Civil Engineering is the application of physical and scientific principles. It involves planning, designing and executing structural works.  Civil engineering deals with designing, supervision and construction activities of public works like roads, bridges, tunnels, buildings, airports, dams, water works, sewage systems, ports etc. and also offers a multitude of challenging career opportunities in Pvt. domain as well.   Environmental engineering, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, water resources engineering, materials engineering, coastal engineering, surveying, urban planning and many more are some of subdisciplines of civil engineering.
Job_opprtunity
A civil engineer can work as Structural engineer, waste treatment engineer, transportation engineer, Geotechnical engineer, water management engineer, construction Engineer, coastal engineer, municipal or urban engineer.  Civil Engineer supervise the construction of  projects to ensure that they are built according to carefully drafted plans. 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. They decide on the best materials and methods to use in building such structures as skyscrapers. Civil engineers who work in hydraulics design canals, flood-control systems, and irrigation systems study water sources and try to develop ways of using water that will benefit the community. Sanitary engineers design systems to purify water and treat wastes to provide a safe and economical supply of water.
