I'm majoring in Civil Engineering because I've always had a fascination for infrastructure. There is no other field in engineering that I like more than civil engineering. But I have a couple of questions to ask:
I wonder about the job outlook for those who major in civil engineering and the pay. I know the Bureau of Labor Statistics has projections, but I wanted to hear some thoughts from those who either work in civil engineering or know people who do work in civil engineering.
What is the actual work life of a civil engineer, and how competitive is it for new college graduates to get jobs in the civil engineering industry?
Also, along with a broad civil engineering curriculum, I'm thinking about adding additional courses in construction engineering/management, transportation and water resources, but are those sub-fields good specialties and can it help me in any way with jobs?
