In modern usage, civil engineering is a broad field of engineering that deals with the planning, construction, and maintenance of fixed structures, or public works, as they related to earth, water, or civilization and their processes.

It includes the planning, designing, construction, and maintenance of structures and altering geography to suit human needs. Some of the numerous subdivisions are transportation (e.g. railroad facilities and highways); hydraulics (e.g. river control, irrigation, swamp draining, water supply, and sewage disposal); and structures (e.g. buildings, bridges, and tunnels).

Civil Engineers are usually found in one of the following organizations

• * Contractors - who traditionally manage the construction work on site, develop and design construction processes and techniques and supervise a professional team.
• * Consultants - who are concerned with the design and planning of projects and their effect on the environment.
• * Public Service Organization and Utilities - who investigate the need for roads, bridges, tunnels, etc and then maintain and manage the structures once they are there.

There are three kinds of civil engineer:

• * Engineering Technician, who has basic knowledge of engineering principles and vital technical skills.
• * Incorporated Engineer, who uses technical knowledge and good management skills to lead project teams.
• * Chartered Engineer, who is an innovator at the forefront of design solutions.

Civil engineering: Highways

Highways civil engineering is concerned with improving, designing and maintaining roads of all sizes (from motorways to B-roads), in all sorts of location.

Civil engineering: Transport

Chartered engineers specializing in the transport sector focus on the design, construction and maintenance of structures, supporting transport networks, such as bridges, tunnels and railway tracks.

Civil engineering: Water and Marine

This area of civil engineering encompasses all kinds of coastline developments including jetties, piers, harbor work, docks and flood protection, plus any other structures used for carrying, storing or distributing water and wastewater.
