I majored in civil engineering. Which is better, buildings or roads and bridges?

These two majors belong to civil engineering and have a lot in common. They all deal with reinforced concrete. As for the difference, you can see from the name that one focuses on the building structure and the other focuses on the structure of roads and bridges. From the point of view of employment, of course, the design institute is the best of the two majors. The design institute is a unit with relatively stable work and relatively high income at present, and with the increase of working years and accumulated work experience, the income will increase. I often have to work overtime. However, design institutes are graded, good and bad. It's a long story, so I won't bother you here. In addition to design institutes, there are also construction units and supervision companies, which are the units with the closest professional relationship, but they all belong to units with more outdoor work, which is relatively hard. As for the Highway Bureau of Transportation Bureau, it is not so easy to enter, unless your uncle is the director and the real boss of the real estate industry.

For a long time, the number of people majoring in building structure has been more than that of road and bridge. At present, the country has increased infrastructure construction, and the demand for talents in roads and bridges has increased. In order to improve the qualification of road and bridge design, all design units have increased the number of road and bridge professionals. Through the above analysis, we should be able to draw a conclusion. If you choose between these two majors, I suggest you choose roads and bridges, and give priority to design institutes in the future. People with working experience in design institutes are more likely to recruit people from other units.

Finally, because there are many similarities between the two majors, it is possible to switch to architectural structure design after work in the future. It's up to you.
