"Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment."
This branch of Engineering involves the design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure such as roads, bridges, buildings, and other structural systems.
Statics: Study of forces acting on and within structures that are in a state of constant motion or at rest.
Dynamics: Study of forces acting on and within structures that are in a state of motion or movement.
Structural Analysis: Study of the behavior of structures under various loads and conditions.
Materials Science: Study of the properties, behavior, and use of materials in engineering applications.
Geotechnical Engineering: Study of the behavior of earth materials and their interaction with structures.
Transportation Engineering: Study of the design and operation of transportation systems, such as roads, airports, and railways.
Environmental Engineering: Study of the environmental impact and sustainability of engineering projects and their effect on human health and the natural environment.
Construction Engineering and Management: Study of construction materials, methods, and techniques, as well as project planning, budgeting, and management.
Water Resources Engineering: Study of the management and development of water resources, including dams, canals, and hydroelectric power plants.

"...it is defined to distinguish non-military engineering from military engineering."
"Civil engineering is traditionally broken into a number of sub-disciplines."
"Civil engineering can take place in the public sector from municipal public works departments through to federal government agencies, and in the private sector from locally based firms to global Fortune 500 companies."
"It is considered the second-oldest engineering discipline after military engineering."
