What is Civil and Construction Engineering?

Civil and construction engineering is the broadest of the engineering professions and is the stem from which most other branches of engineering have developed.

Civil and construction engineering involves the planning, design, construction, maintenance and operation of facilities and systems to control and improve the environment for modern civilizations. This includes projects of major importance such as bridges, transportation systems, buildings, ports and water distribution systems.

I have always enjoyed subjects related to the STEM field and have had a deep passion for helping the environment. Civil engineering combines both of these.
