The first chapters of the text cover the scope of civil engineering, common core curriculum, and the skills and tools needed to succeed as a civil engineering student. Included is a clear description of the Fundamentals of Engineering exam taken by students in the senior year.
The book then discusses landmarks and milestones in civil engineering, and the human stories behind them. It then turns to engineering ethics starting with student ethics, academic honesty, and appropriate classroom behavior.
The final chapter details hiring opportunities in private companies and public agencies, advanced studies, and opportunities outside the field. The Principles and Practice of Engineering exam, the final step before licensing, is described in some detail.
Written to inspire and empower students pursuing a B.S. in civil engineering, Introduction to Civil Engineering is an excellent textbook for an introductory civil engineering course.
