PRESIDENTS COLUMN
Civil Engineering : Foundation of Modern Civilization
As the technological revolution
expands, the worlds population
increases, and environmental
concerns
mount,
Civil
Engineering skills are needed
throughout the world. Whatever
area one chooses, i.e. design,
construction, research, planning,
teaching or management, Civil
engineering offers a wide range of career choices and
there is no limit to the personal satisfaction one will
derive from helping to make the world a better place to
live.
Civil engineers play very significant role as they
build the quality of our life. With creativity and technical
skill, civil engineers plan, design, construct and operate
the facilities essential for modern life, ranging from
bridges and highway systems to water treatment plants
and energy efficient buildings. Civil engineers are
problem solvers, meeting the challenges of pollution,
traffic congestion, drinking water and energy needs,
urban redevelopment and community planning. Civil
engineering technologists function as part of the
engineering team and perform duties that focus on
measurement and analysis, design, supervision of field
installations and quality control. Civil engineering
technicians perform similar work that is less complex
but highly specialized. The main duties are to:
Develop or assist in preparing engineering designs
and drawings from preliminary concepts and
sketches;
Prepare construction specifications, cost and
material estimates, project schedules and reports;
Supervise or conduct field surveys, inspections or
technical investigations of topography, soils,
drainage and water supply systems, road and
highway systems, buildings and structures to
provide data for engineering projects;
Inspection and testing of construction materials;
Supervise, monitor and inspect construction
projects.
Civil engineers have also some time to won as
construction estimators and perform some or all of the
following duties:
Prepare estimates of the costs of materials, labour
and equipment for construction projects based on
contract bids, quotations, schematic drawings and
specifications
ISTE NEWSLETTER

Advise on tendering procedures, examine and

analyze tenders, recommend tender awards and
conduct negotiations
Establish and maintain tendering process and set up
cost monitoring and reporting systems and
procedures
Liaise and consult with engineers, architects,
owners, contractors, and prepare economic
feasibility studies on changes and adjustments to
cost estimates
Beyond the cycle of design and construction, there
is software designed for planning, maintaining and
operation building, transportation systems, and many
other forms of civil engineering works. Web-based
servers for engineering over the Internet and enterprise
intranets, object technology for CAD systems and
information databases, new standards, and multimedia
technology are all emerging as trends that will
increasingly impact the way civil engineers work and
interact with others. Employment for this occupation is
expected to grow about as fast as the average for all
occupations. Employment for these workers often
moves in tandem with the construction sector. Due to
rapidly changing technology in this field, people in these
occupations are desired to plan on periods of retraining
and professional development. New entrants with
experience and highly developed computer expertise are
likely to enjoy the best employment opportunities.
Todays engineers must continue their education
even after their bachelors degree. Engineers will need
to increase their knowledge base to face growing
challenges, either through continuing education and
professional development programs or masters degree
programs. Those entering the civil engineering field are
normally required to have skills in communication,
computers, management and foreign languages, as well
as advanced knowledge in a specialty within civil
engineering. Students increasingly need to have
knowledge of foreign languages and other cultures,
because many civil engineering mega projects are now
overseas. Civil engineers, who belong to oldest
discipline of our civilization, have evergreen scope for
popularity among masses as their contributions are
realized well by urban as well as rural masses
irrespective of any consideration.
