Civil Engineering:
In the early 20th century, civil engineers were the best recognized engineers in India through their contributions in building huge dams, bridges, ports, airports and railways. During the decades of 70s to 90s, due to non-availability of many infrastructure related developments, the popularity and demand of this branch nose dived and except government colleges, majority of private engineering colleges did not offer this branch. This created vacuum when infrastructure development boomed in the country during late nineties and early 2000. All construction projects required site engineers, supervisors and architects; fuelling the demand for civil engineers. All of sudden, there was rush among the private engineering colleges to open civil engineering branch. It is also simpler to study civil compared to other branches as it has minimal mathematics and no software learning except in the first year.
Expected salary: The minimum salary for fresher civil engineers is the highest in education sector where faculties are required to teach such a large number of students. Besides, in construction companies the salary ranges from Rs. 3 Lakh to Rs. 5 Lakh PA.
