Here is a complete occupation guide to Civil Engineering from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A new thing I learned from looking at this is that Civil Engineers usually specialize in a few different subjects, but one that stood out was Geo technical Engineering. This is a branch of Civil Engineering that ensures that the very foundation in which projects are supposed to be done is stable and substantial. A very important part of any structure.
