What are the future employment prospects of graduate students, structural engineering and bridges and tunnels?

Bridge and tunnel engineering belongs to civil engineering specialty, and it is a hot direction of civil postgraduate entrance examination.

Bridge and tunnel engineering plays a very important leading role in the development of national economy. In the construction of highways, railways and urban traffic, it is necessary to build bridges, tunnels and other structures to cross rivers, ravines and straits, or to cross mountains and underwater. The discipline of bridge and tunnel engineering belongs to the first-class discipline of civil engineering, and it is a practical engineering discipline integrating design, construction and project management, aiming at cultivating all kinds of advanced technical and management talents related to engineering construction. This subject is oriented to the basic engineering construction in national economic construction, involving industrial and civil construction, transportation, water conservancy, mining, railway, airport engineering and other infrastructure construction fields.

Major professional courses

Structural mechanics, concrete theory, modern geotechnical mechanics and other basic theories, study the design and calculation methods of stratum treatment, excavation, support and lining. Master the analysis principle of tunnels and underground structures under complex conditions, and use modern nonlinear analysis and optimization design methods to study the tunnel engineering geological environment and its evaluation method, the mechanical dynamics after excavation, the mechanical effects and characteristics of supporting structures, the design and optimization principles and methods of tunnel supporting systems, etc.

Employment prospect of bridge and tunnel engineering

(A) the professional field determines that professionals should keep a steady stream.

Graduates of this major mainly serve the national traffic construction. Traffic construction plays a very important leading role in the development of national economy. Bridges, tunnels and other structures need to be built in the construction of highways, railways and urban traffic, or in order to cross rivers, deep valleys and straits, or in the mountains and underwater. Therefore, such technical personnel are essential. As long as the society is developing continuously, such personnel will not be useless.

(2) The nature of the job determines the generous salary.

Because the amount of mental work is relatively large and the salary is generous, as long as you have the spirit of hard work, you can get a higher level of spiritual life and material life. However, it is worth noting that this major is slightly sexist, and it is more difficult for girls to find a job than boys.
