This degree prepares students to perform in engineering design, drafting, surveying, and construction at the technician level. Employers may include engineering consultants, surveying firms, state and federal governments, public works, construction companies, highway departments, and soil- and materials-testing firms. Graduates typically obtain jobs as building inspectors, construction superintendent trainees, and soil- and concrete-testing technicians under the supervision of engineers. They aid engineers in the design of steel and concrete structures, highways, storm drainage, land development, and sewage and water supply systems. They also obtain jobs as members of survey teams or in computer-aided drafting and design.
