Description: Civil
engineers are dedicated to improving the human environment through the
design and construction of industrial facilities, public works, and transportation
systems. The buildings, highways, railways, bridges, offshore and ocean
structures, airports, dams, reservoirs, waste treatment and hazardous waste
disposal plants, aqueducts, tunnels, pipelines, and water resource systems
that form the nation's infrastructure were designed and constructed by
civil engineers. The civil engineer of tomorrow will also seek solutions
to benifit both society and the individual to reduce ground, air, and water
pollution; to repair or replace deteriorating infrastructures; to improved
congested transportation systems; and to minimize the havoc created by
natural hazords such as floods, wind, storms, and earthquakes.
