Civil engineers may work on site, or in office-based design work either in civil engineering practices or in local authorities, government agencies or non-governmental organisations. There are good opportunities for work overseas and in the UK on projects such as tall buildings, football stadia, bridges, roads and water treatment works.
If you decide not to pursue a civil engineering career, you will find that the transferable skills gained on the course are highly valued in many other fields of employment.
