I just graduated with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering and asked about entering a design school.

I am also a civil engineer and have been working for 3 years. Let me tell you about the options for civil engineering majors and the pros and cons of various options:

1. Construction unit, advantages: If it is a state-owned enterprise or the like, the salary should be around 2,000 to 3,000, with food and housing taken care of , there are medical insurance and social security, there are formal contracts, project management is generally relatively formal, and you can learn something (I once served as the project quality director of China Construction Second Engineering Bureau). Disadvantages: 1. The salary increase is very small. When I was the quality director and technical department manager, the salary for a 120,000 square meter project was only 5,000. At that time, the price in Beijing was probably over 8,000, so there was nothing we could do. 2. The work pressure is extremely high. It is common for one person to work several jobs part-time. There is basically no holiday for a year. If you are a recent college student, it is usually difficult to go home during the Chinese New Year. If it's a private company, the situation may be worse, but the money is more. My brother is a construction worker in a private company, and his salary is nearly twice as high as mine. 3. The working environment is harsh and the risk factor is high. I worked for three years and almost died three times. This was a relatively formal construction site like a central enterprise. At the same time, work is unstable. If you want to make money, get married late, and be away from home for more than three years, it would be better for you to choose a construction company.

2. Design institute, advantages: 1. The working environment is relatively comfortable; 2. The work remuneration is relatively high, but this completely depends on personal ability. Seeing that you are talking about a second-grade design institute, it should be good. ! However, current design institutes generally require a graduate degree. Please check the unit information to avoid being deceived. 3. Bonuses of 8,00 are also possible. For our students in their first year at the Design Institute, the total salary and bonuses can reach 60,000. But... super hard work! And it is based on the premise that your unit's performance is very good! 4. Development should be better in the future. If you are strong enough and can figure out the first-level registration structure or the second-level registration structure, then you can rise to the top. Times were much better. Disadvantages: 1. Tired. 2. Tired to death. 3. Tired to death, ever more tiring work! ! ! Do you know what changing a picture is? If you don’t know, if you stay in a design institute for one year, you must hate these two words! 4. The responsibility is great, and now it is a lifelong responsibility system.

3. Supervision company: You'd better not go, this profession in ZG is completely like a pimp! Not suitable for young people!

4. Admission to public institutions and transfer students: Advantages: stable job, I don’t need to mention these! Let’s talk about the disadvantages: Generally, civil engineering institutions or civil servants require more than two years of work experience. But there are also some requirements without work experience, you can give it a try. But civil servants and public institutions do not have very high professional requirements for you. This will destroy your professionalism, which is a pity.

Furthermore, after seeing the previous answers, when it comes to this method of converting construction to design, I am not very optimistic! Because there is a gap between construction and design, and many design institutes require experience in working in a design institute. Moreover, if you enter a different department and position in the construction unit, your chances of entering a design institute are very small. Unless you stay in the construction unit for a period of time, completely give up construction and enter design, then it is still possible!

Another way out is to take the postgraduate entrance examination, but the postgraduate entrance examination is very risky. I could have maintained my postgraduate studies, but considering the employment pressure and other conditions, I gave up my postgraduate studies and went to work. Now I find that my choice was correct. Our school belongs to the top eight universities, but there are also many graduate students who cannot find good jobs.

Let me give you some final advice. Freshly graduated college students should focus on the following points: 1. Life security, everything is based on survival. 2. For formality, a work contract must be issued in triplicate. Keep a copy for yourself! 3. If you don’t have a famous father like Li Gang, it will definitely be very hard. If you choose civil engineering, you have to be prepared to endure hardships. 4. Two years is a knot. If you can complete the transformation within two years, you will move from your current unit to a better unit! But the risk is high! If you have any other questions, you can continue to ask! hehe! Come on, new civil engineers!
