Civil Engineering is a profession that aplies the basic principles of science in conjunction with mathematical and computational tools to solve problems associated with developing and sustaining civilized life on our planet. Civil Engineering works are generally one-of-a-kind projects: they are often grand in scale; and they usually require cooperation among the professionals of may different disciplines. The completion of a civil engineering project involves the solution of technical problems in which information from numerous sources and myriad non-technical factors play a significant role. Some of the most common examples of civil engineering works include bridges, buildings, dams, airports and hangars, ports, and harbors, highways and railways, tunnels, river and shore improvements, lighthouses, dry-docks, irrigations, flood protection, drainage, water supply, and towers. Enumeration of any work in this statement shall not be construed as excluding any other work requiring civil engineering knowledge and application.

Civil Engineering is one of the broadest engineering disciplines both in terms of the range of problems that fall within its purview and in the range of knowledge required to solve those problems.
