About Civil Engineering

Civil engineers deals mainly with the construction of bridges, dams, roads and highways etc. It is also the oldest branch and broadest fields of Engineering playing a key role in national, socio-economy development and growth of peoples living standard. Civil Engineers build the worlds infrastructure and in doing so they quietly shape the history of the nations around the world. Most people cannot imagine life without the contribution of Civil Engineers to the infrastructure development, public health and safety of this world.
Civil Engineering has extended to Research on Environment and water facilities. Structural engineering has become one of the hottest specializations for civil students. Governments have been started up focusing on Water Projects, Multilevel Buildings, and Roads etc. Mostly all of them are using computer designs. And, that is the reason; the civil engineering students are learning the computer courses such as CAD, CAM etc. to increase their strengths. There is a great demand for specialization in Soil Engineering, Transportation Engineering and Hydraulics. As the real estate sector has also increased rapidly, the opportunities are also increasing for civil students.

Opportunities in future for student:
As India is a developing country. Hence there is a wide scope here. Governments have been started up focusing on Water Projects, Multilevel Buildings, Roads, Metro Rail, River Interlinking, Airports, etc. Mostly all of them are using computer designs. And, that is the reason; the civil engineering students are learning the computer courses such as CAD, CAM etc.,
Surveying, Remote Sensing & GIS:
In this field candidates are eligible to enter as a land surveyor to chief engineer (survey). In private sectors also many opportunities in consultancy services in NRSA(National Remote Sensing Agency, Hyderabad), EPTRI(Environmental Professional Training and Research institute), the institute mainly working GIS Applications in various branches of engineering.Central Govt.depts like ISRO,BHEL,BARC,Survey of India etc.
Soil, Foundation and Geo Technical Engineering:
Now a days many consultancy services working on suitability of foundations on different soils.the foundation engineers are essential for design of dams, water tanks, reservoirs etc.
Hydraulics & Fluid Mechanics:
In this subject many projects all over the world for power generation using water. It plays a major role in our state also. Government is planning to produce more power using water storage structures. In this field candidates appointed as a Assistant Executive Engineer (AEE) directly in govt and private sectors, and they can promote to higher posts as a chief engineer.
Water Resources Planning Engineering and Management:
In this branch state & central government require more jobs every year. In state government they can appoint as a Assistant Executive Engineer (AEE) directly in I&CAD (Irrigation & Command Area Development). This works includes construction of dams, reservoirs, canals, bridges and mini and major irrigation projects like SRSP, SPSP,JURALA, POCHAMPADU, POLAVARAM, PRANAHITHA CHEVELLA,. etc. in central government sectors also the subject plays a dominant role. The government agencies like CWC (Central Water Commission, Kerala), CWRM (Central for Water Resource Management, Pune) and also any river boards and authorities are come under this authority.
Building Materials and Construction, Building Planning and Drawing:
In this field civil engineers are required in construction of building in government and private. In state government candidates are eligible for the post of Assistant Executive Engineer(AEE) in Panchayat Raj, Housing board,. etc. In private also building planning & drawing many consultancies in each town are to be developed.
Valuation of Properties, Estimation & Costing:
Civil engineers are also called as valuers for various government agencies like Municipalities, Banks, Insurance companies, Visa valuers. In this field candidates are earning more.
Strength of Materials and Structural Engineering:
In this subject design of structures like Water tanks, buildings, dams, shopping malls. In government departments, like Roads & Buildings(R&B), Panchayath Raj, Rural water supply(RWS), Housing &Infrastructure Development.
Highway, Railway Engineering & Airport Planning:
In this subject state, central& private sectors huge requirement since development of road network is essential. They can be appointed as Assistant Executive Engineer (AEE) directly they may be promoted to E-in-C(Engineer Chief). In central government also they are eligible to get gazetted rank in CPWD(Central Public Work Department), Airports Authority of India(AAI), NHAI(National Highway Authority of India). In private sectors also government projects are taken up by big companies like L&T, SEW, IVRCL,. etc
Air, Water, Soil Pollution Studies and Environmental Engineering:
This subject having more opportunities in the fields of APPCB (AP Pollution Control Board)& Central Pollution Control Board(CPCB),more civil engineering graduates are require in state & central government department like NEERI(National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, Nagpur), in state government department they are eligible to get Assistant Executive Engineer(AEE) in public health& Municipal Engineering.
