Study Abroad Options For Civil Engineering

Civil Engineering- one of the core and crucial disciplines of Engineering yet so underrated in India considering the career opportunities. It’s believed that Civil Engineering is just limited to stones, bricks and structures. But, if one is willing to reconnoitre the Civil engineering field in detail, there’s much more to discover in terms of various specializations and the different country options favourable for growth in specific domains.

Considering the specializations, if one is interested in the core technical aspects, subjects such as Structures, Environmental engineering, Highway engineering, Transportation engineering, Earthquake engineering, Green engineering, Geotechnical Information Systems (GIS), Geospatial engineering, Urban design and Planning etc can be considered. With a degree program in the technical area, one can gain detailed knowledge of the specialization and utilize it in industry setup or consulting business.

Contrary, those who are inclined towards Management studies and wish to increase their job horizons in multidisciplinary areas, can opt for programs like Construction Management, Project Management or generalized Engineering Management. These techno-management courses serve as a combination of pursuing two degrees parallel- MS and MBA and even recent graduates (fresher’s) can apply for these programs.

Coming to different country options, the USA tops the list providing equal opportunities for core technical specializations as well as techno-management programs. For subjects like Environmental engineering, Highway engineering and Transportation engineering- Canada, Australia and New Zealand can be preferred. For techno-management programs, consider the UK, Australia and Dubai as favoured options. In European countries, Germany can be considered for specialization in Structures.
