Transcript: Job Description A civil engineer is someone who designs and supervises large construction projects, including roads, buildings, airports, tunnels, dams, bridges, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment. Hours and environment You'll work between 35 and 40 hours a week, Monday to Friday. Your time will be split between the office and working on site. Sitework would be in all weathers and may involve extensive travel, sometimes overseas, depending on the contract. Skills and interests To be a civil-engineer technician, you'll need: Excellent maths, science, and IT skills The ability to explain design ideas and plans clearly The ability to analyse large amounts of data and assess solutions Confident decision-making ability Excellent communication skills Project management skills The ability to work within budgets and to deadlines Good teamworking skills A comprehensive knowledge of relevant legal regulations. Entry To become a civil engineer you normally need a three-year Bachelor of Engineering degree (BEng) or four-year Masters degree (MEng) in civil engineering. These qualifications are important if you want to gain incorporated or chartered engineer status later in your career. You could take other engineering-related subjects but it may take you longer to fully qualify. Annual income Income for new graduate engineers is between $25,152 and $59,666 a year. Experienced engineers earn between $70,959 and $97,737 Chartered engineers can earn around $101,219 year. Career goals Have the ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to any situation. An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams Design a system, component, or process in more than one civil engineering context Reflection I chose civil engineering as my career choice because I have always been fascinated with civil related projects. I have always been a keen observer of bridges, railroads and buildings. To me there was something dignified about each one of these projects, that at one point they were somebody's idea in their mind.

Transcript: Engineers need to be creative to solve problems Can Recall certain mathematics to solve certain projects How does Engineering affect the community? Project #3 Movable Bridges Main Essential Question How Do I communicate to the community when they are being affected by a certain project? Identify how Civil Engineering affects the community in order to please its clients and change it. I can create a information sheet in the form of a Door Hanger, that will go on the doors of the affected community members in that area. Goals: Reasons for Choosing This Topic Created by, Bryce Butterworth 1. What are the certain tasks, and strategies to preform sufficiently? 2. How does Engineering affect the community? 3. How is this branch different than the rest of the branches of Engineering? Having a mentor far away Answers to Questions Pros: Improves conditions Cons: Disrupts traffic Closes Roads Tears up Landscape Civil Engineering Things I learned From Him Trying to get as much hours as possible in a limited time frame ANY Questions Decision on whether to double major in college He is in charge of everything in the City Architects work with Engineers Project #2 Building Sea Walls to keep land from erosion Problem: Giving it a 21 Century technology Meet with my mentor by March to learn the activities of Civil Engineering Learn the differences between certain branches within civil engineering I will observe, have hands on experience, and research throughout the entire semester to see if it is worth to double major in C.E. and Arch. Mentor Information Solution: How does Engineering affect the community? Future Plans How I Met Mr. Clegg Door Hanger Gives instructions Warnings Cautions Gives Information/Contacts Looking Further into the World of Engineering Problem: Providing the right material for strength of water current Solutions: 1.Steal walls for calmer waters 2.Concrete boulders for rough waters Essential Questions: Skills: Professionalism How to approach new people Be confident Learn the things before Solution: Refurbish controls and Gears Project #1 Impacts: Look in a new perspective Bob was a old college friend of my mother. That was a successful Engineer. Engineers Working on Project Hydraulic Engineers Soil Engineers Structural Engineers Refurbish old Bridges Problem: Low Water Levels Solution: using Trigonometry to extend the slip to the exact measurement. Overall: would make me unique in the job market have a broader knowledge of certain courses Structural Engineers and Soil Engineers Boat Slip Problem Things Learned Most Challenging Sarah True Passion for Architecture Knew less about Engineering Different types of Engineers Projects from the past, and how they approached it New problems emerging Bob Clegg P.E. Prior Knowledge Outcome City Engineer and Director of Public Service of Port Huron This project was laid out perfectly A great thing for students to experience Will not be majoring in Engineering next fall Structural Engineers mainly worked on this project Problem: How to replace the brick structure with new ones? Solution: Used unique techniques to rebuild structure Sectioned little by little, by putting wood panels Hydraulic Engineer Gained Knowledge Engineers make the design a real possibility Challenge: Profession Length: 35 years Previous Job location: Lansing Tangible Outcome Refurbishing Old Lighthouse
