Civil Engineer

The Common syllabus of Indian Engineering Olympiad (IEO) is given under:-
1. General Aptitude: - (Common to all Streams)
2. Mathematics-I: - (Common to all Streams)
3. Numerical Ability
4. Linear Algebra: - Matrix algebra, Systems of linear equations, Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors.
5. Calculus-I
6. Probability and Statistics
7. Mathematics-II: - (Common to all Streams except Computer Science Engineering)
8. Calculus-II
9. Differential equations
10. Complex variables
11. Numerical Methods: - Numerical solutions of linear and non - linear algebraic equations; Integration by Trapezoidal and Simpson's rules; Single and Multi-step methods for differential equations.

The scope of civil engineering is huge not only abroad but also in India. Be it in terms of size of the industry or income. The primary reason being:
The starting pay of a civil engineer is much less than that of a, say, software engineer. And there is a good reason for it. Civil engineering is valued more on experience than that of knowledge, whereas other engineers are valued more on knowledge. The more experience you have, the more your value increases. Other fields on the other hand are pretty stagnant in terms of development with experience (compared to civil engineering)
The pay-scale of a civil engineer rises exponentially, but that of a software engineer, is almost close to constant. Take any experienced 'good' civil engineer for example. They will be earning much higher than their software counterparts. The major problem is when civil engineers get small pays in the beginning, most of them get de-motivated and un-interested in the field and try for other future options and then whine about civil engineering of how it destroyed their initial years. The key in civil engineering field is that work the hardest and learn the most in your initial stages and money will not be a problem at later stages. Civil engineering has an added advantage that we affect the lives of people directly, right from where they live to how they travel.
So, be interested and rise.

At present, CSE is saturated with so many students who pass out every year, and the tech companies don't differentiate between electronics, IT, Computer and electrical. So, there is a competition from other branches as well in CSE. A lot of my friends who were into these streams have ended up doing MBA. (When you eventually wanted to do MBA, why did you join Science stream? Could have taken commerce. So, many students who are ranked low at entrance exams are deprived as these people occupy their seats.
Anyways, civil has tremendous scope in many fields. Be it construction, transport, geotechnical, fluid mechanics, repair and maintenance, seismic retrofitting of structures, testing of materials. So, basically there are endless opportunities than CSE.
