“My building will be my legacy. They will speak for me, long after gone!”
-Julia Morgan
Civil Engineering is a branch of engineering whose main purpose is to build and create new foundations and buildings. Maybe that's why civil engineers say that date a civil engineer because we won't leave you heartbroken. After all, we believe in building up things not breaking!
Just Kidding! :p
The whole world is blessed by a lot of monuments, museums and tourist places that are built by some of the great civil engineers from the 7 wonders of the world to roads, building, etc.
Similarly, in this article, we will discuss the 7 best major projects for civil engineering students.

1. GIS
Having difficulty in finding places or looking for a place and its reviews?
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind? Google Maps?Right!
Well! No doubt that’s the most used app for navigation nowadays, but what if you learned this amazing technology and make a navigation software of your own.
In this civil major project, you will get an exposure to the manipulation and processing of data, along with which you will learn about the shorter distance founder.
What you will learn?
You can add a lot of new skills to your knowledge with tutorials, video lectures, and quizzes on the following topics:
1)Shortest Distance Finder
2)Affine Transformation
3)Data processing and manipulation
4)Geoprocessing and contour creation
5)Processing real-time GPS data.
2. Tall building design
According to the recent reports, skyscrapers are the future of every developing country, so learning about them and having a practice of working and creating a sample of them will give you an edge over others and will add an extra quality to your present skills.
You will learn about the design building analysis of tall buildings also about the varied loads acting on the system with the use of industrial-grade software (SAP2000 & ETABS) to analyze and design your very own tall structure considering the loads according to IS codes.
What you will learn?

3. Construction Project Management:
Want to do something big!
This is where you will learn about how a construction project is managed like from planning, budgeting, implementing, etc by software.
Well, this one can be something really big because here you will get the opportunity to work with Primavera Software, along with this you will learn about the earned value management, Resource Management, CPM, PERT and project budgeting techniques.
4. Foundation design
Love Challenges? Well then, this one is for you! Foundation design is one of the most challenging projects that you could give a hand on.
Foundation Design for tall buildings over 100 m height is a challenging area.
Complex analysis and design methodologies are required to study the structures of the geotechnical areas, also you can learn how to generate a project report.
In this civil major project, you will also get a boost up to about the foundation systems, reinforcement detailing and scheduling.
What you will learn?
5. Seismic design
Seismic word sounds familiar Right? Well yes If you go into a bit of flashback then you realize this word is associated with earthquakes.
Earthquakes are very common nowadays, but, sadly earthquake-resistant buildings are not, and that's the main reason Seismic design is the most in-demand skill and a skill that is highly needed in the future. You will work on this project with industrial-grade software (SAP2000 & ETABS)
Also, this civil major project will help you by bringing a big change in the future for handling high Richter scale earthquakes from destroying life and property.
What you will learn?
6. Quantity surveying
Quantity Surveying as the term represents the estimation of a quantity which in terms of civil engineering is the estimation of various construction projects like the number of rooms, hall, kitchen, bathrooms in a building, the length, width, height and the construction details of the building to be made.
This is related to calculation and measurement. Also, you can learn about the Archicad and Primavera software.

BURJ KHALIFA
This 829.9m long monument is the tallest building in the world made up of an engineering technology inspired by the “buttressed core”-an engineering structural system with a hexagonal core which helps to support higher buildings than ever before.
Its architecture was inspired by the patterns and structure of Islamic Architecture.
It has also received a lot of rewards like the building with the most number of floors, with a structural cost of $1.5 billion.
