What do civil engineering undergraduates usually do when they go out? People with at least a few years' working experience come to answer questions or people with special views on civil engineering.

It's right to turn others' feelings. They are all civilized people.

Misunderstanding 1

Be happy when you are a freshman and a sophomore, and work hard when you are a junior and a senior. Learning is a habit. When you habitually skip class, copy your homework and don't think, you are trying to calm down and study, and you will find it very difficult. Moreover, the postgraduate entrance examination will also take the theoretical mechanics of senior three and senior two. You didn't learn these courses well, and others reviewed them when you were going to take the postgraduate entrance examination, so you taught yourself. Think about the gap between them.

When I was a freshman and a sophomore, I wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination and settle down to study. I found that I was a tragedy, and I was used to being wild. It's hard to calm down.

It is suggested that if you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination, please start from the second misunderstanding of freshman year.

After going to college, the knowledge in books is useless, so I will go to the construction site (design institute) to study in the future. Misunderstanding solution

This is the futility of studying in college. In particular, seniors who practice in their senior year often talk to their younger brothers and sisters about things. This is actually the wrong answer they got when they didn't go deep into this industry. At the beginning of their work, these newcomers feel that what they learned in college is useless, but with the progress of their work, what they learned in college will become more and more obvious. The first is the measurement practice in the university, which is probably the most closely used. There is no construction site without measuring and setting out. Secondly, build universities with scientific management and laws and regulations. These boring things in class are really common sense to deal with the supervision of developers during construction. Some people may say that I work in construction, and mechanics are definitely useless. When there are temporary houses and buildings on the construction site, some equipment needs to be poured into the site. At this time, if you have a solid foundation in college. It is time to do something and learn something, which reflects the important line of university study. These simple buildings can be built completely. In the construction, you have to take an examination of the builder, and there are some courses that the builder must take. Again, when the university studies hard, taking these certificates now is a review. And you didn't study hard. Then you took the exam and taught yourself. It's easier to teach yourself or review, so let's judge for ourselves.

If you go to a design institute to do design, what you have learned in the whole university is basically useful, especially when you take the registered structural engineer exam, you basically have to take every course in the university.

Architects, structuralists, these certificates are money. You should despise anyone who says your college studies are useless.

Sometimes you feel that what you learned in college is useless. In fact, sometimes you apply what you have learned to your work, but you may not pay attention to it. Just like everyone is typing and reading stickers now, these are the results of our first-year study. But every time you read a book, you shouldn't think so. Ah, I learned this in primary school, and I used it. What I learned in primary school is really useful.

It is suggested that every course in the university, including Mao Deng Lun, should be easy to learn. Maybe when you want to take an examination of civil servants or institutions one day, you may regret that Mao almost missed Allen's class.

Myth 3: It is a sufficient condition that you have to be a graduate student to enter the design institute, either to test the relationship or to solve the misunderstanding of experience. But not a necessary condition. Doesn't mean you're not a graduate student. It doesn't matter if you can't get into the design institute at home. Compere: I am like a dream ... I graduated from a third-rate undergraduate course, and now I am doing well in the design institute. The difficulty in finding a design institute is largely related to the recruitment methods of design institutes and construction enterprises. Construction enterprises recruit people, go to schools to recruit people, and go to job fairs to recruit people. Because construction enterprises are generally relatively large, with hundreds of people. There is a special HR to recruit people. So everyone thinks that the construction unit is really easy to enter. Design institutes are generally managed by bosses, and few people specialize in human resources. Design institutes generally don't go to any job fairs to recruit people, but go to some professional websites such as architectural talents (network civil talents). So everyone feels as if the design institute is not hiring. In fact, many design institutes are short of people, and employees are too busy to work overtime. And the boss doesn't even know where to recruit people. So at this time, everyone needs to try. You can go to these professional recruitment websites to find them. Or Baidu search the name of your city plus the design institute.

For example, if I am from Changzhou, I will search for the recruitment of Changzhou Design Institute on Baidu. Or Changzhou structural design recruitment Changzhou architectural design recruitment and so on. There are many results. Everyone knows the story of the pony crossing the river. The old cow said the water was shallow and the squirrel said the water was deep. I also learned that you are not as strong and easy to cross the river as an old cow, but you will never cross the river unless you try.

Of course, finding a river is not easy. You can go to the website of the local construction bureau to find the contact information of the local design institute. Many foreign affiliated design institutes will also file with the Construction Bureau. In fact, many small design rooms are anchored by shallow rivers. Generally, you can finish undergraduate courses, and some even accept junior colleges and technical secondary schools. The point is that you have to find it.

Don't feel inferior. Bravely go to the design institute to find a job. Myth 4: Do the construction first, and then turn to the design.

Architecture and design are two different directions. Teachers who say this sentence usually have no experience in design and construction, and go directly to the school to teach after graduating from master's or doctor's degree. They simply don't understand the employment forms of design institutes and construction. People who have done construction and then switched to design do have some advantages. The design will be more reasonable and the construction will be more convenient.

But after two years of construction, it seems that I have more construction experience, but I pay more attention to the application of mechanical knowledge CAD in design. You have been working on these things for two years and have long forgotten them. Compared with the knowledge of architectural science, it is nothing at all. You can also often go to the construction site to do design. Moreover, after several years of construction, the design institute will not give you a high salary because you have a builder's certificate and two or three years of construction experience, which has no advantage compared with fresh graduates. Will still start at 1500 a month like fresh graduates. Then your construction experience in the first two years is a waste. It is very likely that you have been building for two or three years, and it has been three or four thousand and one month. This psychological gap is also difficult to overcome. After working in the construction unit for several years, it is not advisable to apply for a design institute if you think you have less experience and have experience.

I suggest that if you want to enter the design institute, please start from graduation.

Myth 5: I went to the infrastructure office of a real estate company just after graduation.

The starting salary of joining a real estate company or working as a Party A in the infrastructure department is probably the highest than when I first started to do architectural design. Many people fantasize about being promoted to the top in real estate companies or large enterprises.

This is very unrealistic. As a fresh graduate, going to these units will not do anything substantive and technical to a large extent. Most of them are errands. Run the design institute to stamp, take the drawings and change them. Bragging with the builder and drinking with the supervisor is nothing. This will not have any substantial impact on Ben. To put it bluntly, he is a handyman. One of my classmates just graduated, and what he did in Party A was actually to count the number of muck trucks coming in and out of the construction site every day. Who wouldn't do such a thing? The people who really do things are those who have working experience in construction units or design institutes. Only when you come to a real estate company to be a civil engineer, review drawings and supervise construction, can you have a future and be promoted. A fresh graduate can't do architecture and design. The house designed by the design institute contains too much steel, the design is unreasonable, or the construction unit does not follow the specifications and cuts corners. You can't see that you don't know anything as a supervisor, only those who are fooled by construction, supervision and design institutes are doomed to be tragic characters.

It is suggested that some girls who want to work stably can go to Party A after graduation. What do boys do after graduation?

Myth 6: People who have the ability to take the postgraduate entrance examination think that it is a waste of time and it is better to work.

Many people think that graduate school is better than going out to work for two or three years. This can only be said to have some truth. However, this statement is not correct for everyone. Whether to go to graduate school or not, I think we should consider it from three aspects.

Direction of interest

Want to do structural design, like mechanics. Like studying. I like finite element. Then go to the postgraduate entrance examination

The second era

In fact, age is also very important. If you are eight years old in grade one, you will retake the college entrance examination for one year. In this case, the graduate students will soon be 30. As a girl, I have to consider this aspect.

And if you are in the first grade at the age of six. I seem to have missed two years of school. It's a pity not to take the postgraduate exam. One of my classmates usually studies well, but he just wants to work. That's how I persuaded him. Now he is a graduate student of He Hai.

Three abilities

Academic performance is among the best, and it is still a waste not to take the postgraduate exam. If you fail in many classes, there is no hope for the postgraduate entrance examination. Then don't follow the trend. Find a job early. It is suggested that the direction of construction should be pursued, and graduate students are naturally no different from undergraduate students. But graduate students enter design institutes or government departments and institutions. I still value it. So if you can get into graduate school, try your best. Myth 7: It is a waste of time for universities not to skip classes.

Some people think that not skipping classes is a waste of time. First of all, as a student, skipping classes is not something worthy of praise, even if there are 10 thousand reasons. Students who don't skip class are not good students, which is even more ridiculous. Maybe you don't like the teacher's boring lectures, maybe you don't like a class. Maybe you think it's a waste of time to attend classes. But class is class. There are no rules, Fiona Fang.

Maybe you didn't hear a certain knowledge point after skipping class, but you spent more time studying after class. Doesn't necessarily mean that you are saving time. Myth # 8: Structural design is learning PKPM budget, learning Guanglian road board to calculate quantity, and architectural design is learning Tianzheng building 3DS MAX. Since 1995, almost all architectural design and structural design have entered the era of electronic drawing. Nowadays, the structural design computer has replaced manual calculation. When I first came into contact with PKPM, I also felt its unparalleled magic. I think I am awesome after learning PKPM. Affected by this, I have studied SAP2000, Luban Computing, Tianzheng Architecture and 3DS MAX. But when I finished my graduation project, I found that it was not the same thing. These softwares are just tools. Some tools are useless even if you learn them. For example, it is a joke for civil engineering students to learn 3DS MAX. Although PKPM has replaced computational engineering, it has not replaced your thinking process and parameter input process. Without a solid hand calculation foundation, using PKPM is nonsense. For example, the period reduction of the STAWE parameter in a simple PKPM. If you are good at manual calculation, you will naturally know how much to fill in. Because it is clearly written in the concrete example of hand-calculated structure, the contribution of non-load-bearing members to structural stiffness should be considered and the period should be reduced. If you don't know kung fu, others will tell you the experience value of 0.7. At that time, a structure was surrounded by glass curtain walls and there was no partition wall. It would be a joke to fill in 0.7. There is also the stiffness amplification factor of the center beam. When manually calculating the reinforcement of beam-slab columns, the reason of beam stiffness amplification is also very clear. Considering the plate as the flange of the beam will contribute to the stiffness of the beam. So the stiffness should be enlarged. Again, you don't understand this parameter. When the building is an industrial framework, there are no floors, all equipment. You magnified the stiffness of the center sill, which is also a joke. Many parameters of PKPM are closely related to the concept of manual calculation. Don't understand, don't think according to other people's experience, you can only be a rookie.

The same is true of architecture. No hand-painted kung fu, no artistic skills. Even if you learn all the functions of Tianzheng architecture. You can't design good architectural works either. Even funnier, some people are fascinated by the automatic generation of elevation and profile in the sky. An important performance of design is that the facade looks good. There is nothing to see in the automatically generated appearance. If you have time to fiddle with those meaningless functions, it is better to draw a pen-and-ink painting. Moreover, it will only draw an architectural drawing according to the gourd painting gourd ladle, not architectural design. Don't be misled by some teachers who train building software.

I suggest that everyone should follow their own employment direction and goals. Choose the right software and pay attention to the study of basic skills. In order to make a good design. In order to become a qualified structural engineer and architect. The era when many skills were not overwhelming has passed. In the era of social division of labor, what is needed is a master in a certain direction. Want to learn everything, want to do everything, and probably won't learn anything well in the end. Nothing is a master. I can't do anything. This netizen basically made many mistakes above, thinking that the more you learn, the better, and what software you learn is great. Myth 9: The civilian industry earns less money and has no future. Teachers, doctors, IT, foreign trade finance and other majors have good work prospects, and it is easy to work overtime.

I found that many people have the feeling that their universities are the worst, their industries are the worst and their jobs are the worst. College students say it's not as good as undergraduates, and school garbage. The last two books say that their school garbage is not as good as the first one. In the last book, I said that my own is not as good as Tongji in Tsinghua, and the school is rubbish. None of my classmates are from Tsinghua Peking University. I guess they will probably say that their school is not as good as a foreign university, and their school is rubbish.

This misunderstanding has created an atmosphere. When you were in high school, you were proud of your school, no matter in a bad school. But when we get to the university, everyone is really ashamed of their own university. This is a strange phenomenon. And many people think that their major is not good, but other majors are good jobs. This is actually a misunderstanding. Every industry has its own characteristics and hardships, but it also has its own advantages. When everyone thinks the teacher is good. Who ever thought that teachers should get up as early as students, go to school early and study at night? Everyone felt very good, but who knew the fierce competition in the IT industry? Training schools such as Beida Jade Bird make programmers and network managers no longer high-paying positions. Everyone thinks that finance is good, but the industry has high requirements for the comprehensive quality of employees. Failure to enter banks and some securities investment companies means unemployment. Everyone thinks doctors are good. But who knows how hard it is for doctors to work in three shifts? The helplessness of autopsy when studying medicine. You only see the good side of other industries and ignore the bad side. Everyone thinks civil engineering is hard. In fact, it is inevitable for other industries to work overtime and stay up late for emergencies. Everyone thinks that although the civil engineering industry will be very hard at the construction site, it is also very chic. Painting in a design institute will be boring. But nothing can replace the excitement of watching sulfate paper come out of the machine.

It is suggested that each industry has its own characteristics. Just because you see a classmate get a high salary in a certain industry doesn't mean that the whole industry is well paid. Every industry has a rookie with a monthly salary of several thousand yuan, and every industry also has executives and bosses with an annual salary of one million yuan. Since you have chosen or been chosen to become a civil engineering industry, it is better to do your own job and not think about changing careers all day. You have the courage to do industry knowledge that you have never been exposed to or learned. Why don't you have the courage to work hard in your own line? Myth 10 The civil engineering industry must smoke and drink, otherwise there will be no future and development.

Under such a misunderstanding, many people who could not smoke and drink originally tried to learn to smoke and drink before graduation. And some people who hate smoking and drinking are obsessed with whether to learn to smoke and drink. Some even change careers because they can't smoke or drink.

Smoking and drinking is a unique way of communication in China. It is true that some people who drink too much on the wine table will be taken seriously by the leaders. At some parties, bring alcoholic subordinates. Sometimes you can meet many friends at the wine table. But you can't drink. You can invite friends to sing KTV, eat buffet, eat fish, or take a sauna and other communication methods, without inviting them to eat and drink. There are also people who drink heavily at work, but they spend more time in contact with leaders at the wine table, which seems to have more opportunities. But will people who can't smoke and drink really never be promoted and ignored?

The answer is obviously not. There is a person who smokes and drinks heavily in our design institute, and every time he goes out for entertainment, the leader takes it with him. But after receiving the big project, the more complicated project is still done by a girl with the strongest technology in our unit. If you drink too much, it will only remind the leaders of you when they are socializing. And to do engineering, you still need excellent technology.

It is suggested that if you have a capacity for alcohol, it is naturally a good thing. It will give you more opportunities to make ends meet on the wine table. But don't drink and don't force yourself. Excellent technology is king. With excellent technology, there will be many opportunities. However, smoking is not commendable in any way, which costs money and harms people. If you want to use it for communication, take a pack of cigarettes with you and give one to whoever smokes. You don't need to smoke by yourself.
