  Shiv..... If you live in the U.S., it is ALWAYS best to use the Dept of Labor Website (which I put Below) on any occupation that you choose because all of them go by Govt Standards of the Topics below.. Nature of the Work Working Conditions Training, Other Qualifications, and Advancement Employment Job Outlook Earnings Related Occupations Sources of Additional Information Their definition of Civil Engineering is Below... Civil engineers design and supervise the construction of roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and water supply and sewage systems. They must consider many factors in the design process, from the construction costs and expected lifetime of a project to government regulations and potential environmental hazards such as earthquakes. Civil engineering, considered one of the oldest engineering disciplines, encompasses many specialties. The major specialties are structural, water resources, construction, environmental, transportation, and geotechnical engineering. Many civil engineers hold supervisory or administrative positions, from supervisor of a construction site to city engineer. Others may work in design, construction, research, and teaching. http://stats.bls.gov/oco/ocos027.htm Good Luck to you in the Future........
