My Future Speciality: Industrial and Civil Engineering

Construction is an important branch of the economy that involves the construction of new and the maintenance of existing buildings and permanent structures.

Structures can be classified according to the materials used as wooden, stone, concrete, reinforced concrete, steel structures and so on. According to their functions permanent structures can be divided into residential and public buildings (including houses, apartment buildings. government buildings, school buildings, community buildings in villages), industrial buildings (factories, plants, power stations).

In most countries housing and industrial construction is being carried out on a large scale. Hundreds of factories are producing prefab panels, metal frames, reinforced concrete arches and so on. To-day industrial methods are used extensively in construction operation: the work is organized according to the assembly-line principle and is highly mechanized. The production cycle in the construction industry lasts from a few months to a few years. Work is carried out by construction and assembly organizations that have at their disposal planners, designers, surveyors.

Building profession attracts a great number of young men and women as an honourable profession. The person entering this profession must have scientific attitude,'imagination, initiative and good judgement obtained by experience and serious work. Civil engineers have an important aim – to provide people with all modern conveniences for a dwelling. The efforts of an engineer who designs a project and the constructor who builds a project are directed towards thesame goal namely, the creation of something which will serve the purpose for .which it is built. Construction is the ultimate objective of adesign. The ultimate decisions of civil engineer should be based on a reasonable knowledge of new methods in construction. An engineer is also engaged in preparing plans and specifications and in supervising the construction of the project. It is the duty of the engineer to design the project which will most nearly satisfy the needs of the occupant at the lowest practical cost.

If you want to contribute to the beauty of a town or city, if you want to leave a memory of yourself in the history of that town or city do your best to learn the trade of civil engineer.

National University of Water Management and Natural Resources Use trains future civil engineers at the jouilding faculty. Students get good scientific training and study the existing industrial methods. When they become full-fledged builders they will develop new ones. Besides, the course of study includes general technical subjects (descriptive geometry and drawing, strength of materials, building machines, theoretical mechanics, geology, hydrology, heat engineering), special subjects (building materials, civil and industrial architecture, reinforced concrete, metal and timber constructions, building technology and organization, construction economy, construction planning and management, environmental protection), work-based courses (essentials of law, science of theory and practice of patenting and protection of author's right, financing in construction).

The study of courses is accompanied by work experience enabling the students to test their vocational preferences. Work experience helps them to obtain occupational and survival skills and establish a relation­ship with a particular employer which may lead to the offer of a permanent job after the graduation from the Academy. The engineer should know the perspective problems connected with vocational guidance such as usage of new technologies, improvement of technologies, up-to-date industrial methods.

After the graduation Дот the Academy young specialists are able to work as building engineers, chief engineers, development engineers, process engineers, job foremen, health and safety engineers on the construction sites and enterprises; design engineers, designers at the project and survey institutes; junior and senior research workers at the research institutes'; teachers at higher and vocational schools.

The graduates may have their follow-up education at post- graduate courses of different institutes and universities at home and abroad and at in-service training of civil engineers. They usually participate in international exhibitions, conferences, congresses and symposia. It is very important that people enjoy their work as much as possible and enjoying work means choosing the right career and placing.
