Civil engineering is more than technical knowledge it’s about experience, networking, and continuous learning. Here’s a roadmap I recommend: 1. Foundation stage (Student/Graduate): Focus on learning core principles, software tools, and practical internships. 2. Early career: Take responsibility for small projects, learn site management, and document every experience. 3. Mid-career: Specialize, mentor juniors, and start building a professional reputation. 4. Advanced: Lead large projects, innovate, and share your knowledge with the next generation. Where are you in your journey, and what’s your next career goal?
