[QUOTE="Hope Springs Hauler, post: 675598, member: 7148"] This is my gig. The education part for the "Gen Ed." stuff sucked. You need to be able to survive and pass Electrical Circuits, Thermodynamics, and 4 levels of Calculus. Its not useless, but for a Civil, it will not be applied routinely. While unhappy early in college, once I got to the advanced classes in the field, they were easy because I was interested. Civil engineering is very diverse and EXPERIENCE is king. There is: * Transportation * Structural * Environmental * Water Resources * Planning * Construction * Geotechnical The last 2 are what I do. I work on assessing and evaluating dams, levees, and foundations for bridges, roads, and buildings. Also, I will take the plans created by the others and help a contractor implement them. another key part of my job is looking at a set of plans and telling the designers that they are full of **** and it needs changed to be built. Staring pay out of college is about 50k and not impossible to get to 70-80k in 6-10 years. Let me know if you have specific questions, but I have several guys in my firm that started their career at 30-45 years old. [/QUOTE]
