Advancement Prospects
Civil engineering technicians must study and expand their skills throughout their careers. They must learn new techniques, master the operation of new equipment and the use of the most current design software, and gain greater depth of knowledge in their chosen fields to stay abreast of the latest developments. Some technicians move on to supervisory positions, while others pursue additional education to become civil engineers. Others teach civil engineering or civil engineering technology at colleges and universities.
