Future Career Paths

The curriculum in civil engineering technology (CET) is designed to provide ample instruction in the areas of knowledge required for successful performance in the following capacities as well as in other construction related positions:

Architectural and Structural Draftsman and Designer
plans, designs and supervises construction of frame, steel and concrete structures; makes architectural inspections and appraisals for architects and builders.

Highway Engineering Technologist
collects and tests soil samples, concrete and other materials to ascertain physical characteristics for use in highway construction; establishes the location and measurements of points, elevations, lines, areas and contours of land needed for highway construction and prepares hard copy, draft or computer generated drawings of same.

Estimator
determines quantities and costs of materials and labor required to erect structures.

Materials Tester
determines mechanical properties of materials used in the erection of structures and highways.

Surveyor
supervises, directs and is responsible for the accuracy of the work of an engineering survey party engaged in determining the location and measurements of points, elevations, lines, areas and contours on the Earth’s surface for purposes of securing data for building and highway construction, map-making, land-valuation, mining or other purposes.

Environmental Technologist
Plans, designs and monitors water, wastewater and other environmental pollution control systems.
