Civil & Environmental engineers plan, design, and direct the construction of public and private works that are essential to modern life.  Projects vary widely in their nature, size, scope, operation, use, and location: from downtown skyscrapers to a stream restoration project in the back country.  Civil & Environmental engineers design, analyze, and help build buildings, tunnels, bridges, dams, roads, airports, transit systems, drinking water and wastewater solid and hazardous waste, sustainable energy facilities and more. Civil & Environmental engineering projects must be safe, efficient, and cost effective, with minimum impact to the environment now and in the future.
