As a civil engineer, you can design and oversee the construction of roads, bridges, dams, tunnels, buildings, and other large infrastructure projects. You might also work on environmental engineering projects like water treatment plants or flood control systems.
There are four main types of civil engineers: geotechnical, structural, environmental, and transportation. Geotechnical engineers focus on the soil and rock beneath a construction site, making sure it is stable and secure. Structural engineers design the actual buildings and bridges. Environmental engineers work on projects to improve water and air quality, while transportation engineers focus on designing and building roads, railways, and other modes of transport.
