Houston Civil Engineering Jobs Overview

Civil engineering jobs touch everything we see and do. By lunchtime today, civil engineers made your life easier in several ways: They designed and managed the construction of the roads you drove to work and the office building you're sitting in. They made it easy for you to get clean drinking water for your coffee and devised an easy way to get across the river on your way home.

Civil engineers work on five areas of infrastructure that affect our lives: structures, water resources, transportation, construction, and geotechnics. Day-to-day, they create, build, supervise, operate, construct, and maintain projects in those areas. As structures and systems age, civil engineers conduct repairs and upgrades to keep life moving.
