If you are a civil engineer then there are so many options, choose your career according to your interest.
I am suggesting the following career as I know about it. it is based on a master’s degree.
If you like calculation, design, software, etc. then start your master’s in structural engineering.
It could be the hardest course in civil engineering. you need to be a hard-working and intelligent enough to do structural engineering.
- Civil – LLB ( intellectual property right)
As we know, online businesses getting higher in-demand. even the business related to civil engineering is also getting online.
So, the company could need copyright protection in our field also.
- Civil – LLb ( Real estate)
The advocates related to the construction filed also could be in-demand because, in the mega projects, the higher money is involved. so, you can earn much more in the present or in the future if you are an advocate with civil.
Construction managers are needed most in the mega projects to save time and money. you could be paid higher if you get the job as a project manager.
The companies always need the sales executive and HR. so if you like marketing, you can do MBA after civil and you can be paid higher in some big companies.
If you like the material testing or educate the people you can choose Geotech.
If you like the railway and road planning and design you can go for transportation.
Infrastructure is also a growing discipline in India.
If you like surveying and GPS, you can choose this filed as your master’s degree.
Some of the career growth without a master’s degree can be following.
For buildings,
- Trainee site engineer – site engineer – trainee structure designer – junior structure designer- senior structure engineer – principle structure engineer.
