I submitted a thread a while ago about wanting to pursue a 2nd bachelors degree in Civil Engineering. It is still on the bottom of the page somewhere (not too busy of a forum apparently).
Anyway, I'm the program and doing well. My interests rank as listed before: Land Development -> Transportation -> Structural
However, it is not a strong hierarchy. I would just prefer not to do environmental. Anyway, my school has a concentration option and Land Development is not one (jobs there seem scarce anyway), so I have to pick Transportation versus Structural.
I've been doing some searches of jobs for CEs and just found that there are about 5 times as many listings for Structural Engineers as Transportation Engineers. Is this accurate? Is it much harder to get a job as a Transportation Engineer? All things being equal, I'd probably rather do Transportation, but if jobs will be much easier to find in Structural, I'll try and go that route.
Any opinions?
