Become a civil engineer

Civil engineering is the art of planning and building the world we live in.

In other words: roads, buildings, wind turbines, bridges, railways, airports, tunnels, flood defences and much more.

Civil engineers transform lives by designing and building safe structures and providing essential life-giving services. They also tackle global environmental problems like climate change and pollution.

What’s more, there aren’t enough civil engineers to go around and their skills are in high demand in across the UK, so it’s a great career option for the future.

Below are some links to videos and guides from the Institution of Civil Engineers about working in civil engineering. We hope you enjoy finding out more about this exciting career!
