  Study and work are two parts which are often discussed in the educational field. We all study to become something or someone who is expert in our field. These are some of the features of civil engineering study and civil engineering work. Civil Engineering Study Theoritical Foundations :- Engineering study mainly focus on theoritical approach. Students have to gain the already studied and researched topics to get along with it. It is mainly focuses on physics, mathematics and related engineering fields. Study Enviroment :- It is mainly occurs in a peaceful and harmonic teaching environment. Students will be guided in a colleges, universities or other educational institutes. Curriculum :- Civil Engineering study have a curriculum. One must have to complete more than 120 credits course to complete engineering. These curriculum is designed to gain the knowledge on theories, practical knowledge and principles of engineering. Research and Project Works :- Students have opportunity to

Civil engineering is a well-known profession in the world. We can find civil engineers at every corner of the world. There are 24,030 registered civil engineers only in Nepal, according to the database of the Nepal Engineering Council (NEC). These are the absolute numbers registered by NEC, but the count is increasing rapidly because of the yearly output of the engineering universities. There are four major universities in Nepal that offer civil engineering courses: Tribhuwan University, Kathmandu University, Pokhara University, and Purwanchal University. These universities have affiliated colleges that offer civil engineering courses. To start a civil engineering journey, there are two distinctive ways. 1) After completion of +2 with a Science stream with Mathematics. 2) After completing the 3-year diploma program. If you have completed any of the above, you will be eligible for joining the Bachelor in Civil Engineering. It is only the beginning of the iceberg. To enroll in the civil
