What are some tips for a High School student entering his junior year and wants to be a civil engineer?

Answer 1

Join any clubs at school and locally associated with engineering. This will help getting into college and great for networking. Some clubs also offer partial scholarships or contribute towards your college funding.

Try during next summer, and during your senior summer try to shadow someone in the business or get an internship in an office with civil engineering.

Read up on the current trends in the industry. Go to the library and also maybe subscribe to a few.

Hope this helps.
