  1. Numerous Career Paths for Civil Engineers

  2. Civil engineers are considered to be technical artists who design and build aesthetic structures, roads and other architectural marvels.

  3. Their whole career more or less evolves around constructions, yet there are varying specializations within these constructions where civil engineers can seek and find a better career path. Some of the major ones include:

  4. Materials Construction Engineering: With the enhancing status of the construction industry and the unending need of materials, this emerging field is always looking out for graduates with knowledge in materials development and maintenance.

  5. Engineering Designs and Blueprints: If one is well versed in designing software tools such as STAAD Pro, ETABS, Revit Architecture, SAFE etc. there are plenty of opportunities within this field as such professionals are required for modeling and drafting of Civil Engineering projects.

  6. Surveying: With a whole knowledge of operating the Total Station Equipment and a passion for land surveying one can venture a career in this field. Surveying professionals with experience of survey data analysis and field surveying are always in great demand in India.

  7. Transportation Engineering: Roads and railways moving swiftly with people are the result of efficient efforts and hard work of transportation engineers.

  8. If one has the ability to understand people/vehicle behaviour and design a transportation system with minimal traffic issues, it is a right career for them. Currently India is making major upgrades on our road and rail transportation networks, which will provide jobs for many engineers.

  9. Building Information Modelling: BIM is rather a promising career as the process of creating a 3D digital interface model of all buildings before beginning the actual construction has become a necessity in large firms. Sooner or later this 3D modelling is going to rise to an industry level and future constructions will become increasingly dependent on this prior digital structure.

  10. Construction Management: This is the highest paid job with immense opportunities for civil engineering graduates. Because without a construction project manager nothing can be done. For a job in this field one may need to possess certain skills such as basic project management skills, proficiency in software tools like Primavera and MS Project, and relevant field experience.

  11. Other than these career paths there are numerous others, such as water resources engineer, fire engineer, marine engineer, geotechnical engineer etc. One way or the other all engineering graduates will get employed in different industries with appealing salary packages. It is one of the main reasons why engineering colleges in Kerala and other places around the world are experiencing the greatest rush of applications every subsequent year.
