Whats the difference between civil engineering and construction engineering?
Most of the time a construction engineer(sometimes called construction technician or construction technologist) a is a either two or four year technology degree that is more involved with project management and to see the plans and designs of the civil engineer are carried out correctly. They usually sit at the job site day to day to make sure the jobs are being done right. The civil engineer actually spends most of his time in developing the designs of an architect in putting in the proper structural framework, drainage, waste handling and general building engineering issues. civil engineer- http://www.bls.gov/K12/build05.htm construction engineer http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos112.htm Civil engineering is usually more difficult, but theyy both have job opportunities.
