How to learn civil engineering well?

It has been two years since I graduated, majoring in civil engineering. I am now working in a design institute. My personal opinions: 1. Determine your professional direction. Nowadays, universities all major in civil engineering. In fact, in actual work, the division of majors is very detailed. You need to set a professional direction for yourself so that you can focus on it in your studies. For example, geotechnical engineering, bridge engineering, structural design, architectural design, hydraulic design, road survey and design, construction organization design, project budget, etc. Taken individually, there is a lot to learn, and schools will only treat them as I'll teach you the most basic knowledge, and you won't be able to explain everything thoroughly in 4 years, so you have to make a choice for your future career direction. 2. Learn basic skills well. I think some courses are very important and will be used no matter what your major is. Civil engineering drawing (no matter what kind of CAD you do, you must be able to do it. It is important to cultivate a sense of horizontal, vertical, and cross-sectional space), soil mechanics, and hydraulics (you must have the most basic understanding of geological conditions. No matter what kind of project, you must first Considering geological conditions, and this is also the place where problems are most likely to occur in engineering), the three major mechanics (theoretical mechanics, material mechanics, structural mechanics, elastic mechanics are not involved in some professional directions, you can learn by yourself later), C language or C (Actually, this is a very interesting course. Although there are many calculation programs now, sometimes a simple calculation cycle that you learned in college can help you solve many complex things at work. 3. Practical experience. From books Things are very abstract and difficult to understand. It is best to practice and observe on the construction site and chat with experienced masters in various types of work. You will learn a lot. The major we study is very practical, even if you are in the future. When engaging in design work, you must also have an understanding of the actual construction methods and sequences, otherwise you will make a fool of yourself in the future. Those who stay in the office are not called engineers. 4. Regulations and specifications are the guidelines for all our actions. When studying, you can first dabble in some of them, such as "High Regulations", "Load Regulations", "Resistance Regulations", "Concrete Regulations", "Foundation Regulations", "Masonry Regulations", etc. This is the red line of our work that must be firmly grasped. Okay, I hope. You have achieved success in your studies and become our peers. Here is a little advice. Our major is actually very good. Don’t give up easily. Engineers become more valuable as they get older. This is unmatched by other industries.
