What Civil Engineers Need to Know
This chapter examines civil engineering as a profession. It provides background on various career specializations, as well as typical educational and licensure requirements for achievement of professional status. The chapter also provides insights into what knowledge civil engineers need to internalize or “know in their heads.” Increases in the civil engineering body of knowledge have resulted in a formalized approach to civil engineering education. There is no one typical career path for civil engineers. Most engineering graduates start with entry‐level positions, and as they prove their competence, they gain more and more significant tasks. Civil engineers now have specialized educations involving diverse topics that enable them to recognize and solve problems. In addition to mathematics and science, practicing civil engineers need to know about design, sustainability and other contemporary issues, risks and uncertainties, project management, communication, public policy, contract law, business, leadership, teamwork, and professional and ethical responsibility.
