Civil engineering technicians apply theory and principles of
civil engineering in planning, designing, and overseeing the
construction and maintenance of structures and facilities in the
highway system. They may work at construction or survey sites,
offices or in testing labs with engineers, surveyors,
supervisors, managers, or skilled trade workers. The successful
civil engineering technician must have a working knowledge of
college algebra and trigonometry, civil drafting,
communications, construction materials, surveying, and must be
computer literate. Civil engineering technicians work for
construction, engineering, and architecture firms, government
agencies, mapping agencies, and private petroleum and mining
companies. Not all courses in this program transfer to all
colleges. Students planning to transfer should see an
academic advisor or counselor before enrolling in any course. |
