Civil engineering is a dead field. Should I change my major?

I’m more curious than anything else. I can see how some traffic engineers and environmental engineers are not tied to the construction industry, but what percentage of practicing civil engineers do they constitute?</p>

<p>It’d be nice to see a breakdown of the percentages of civil engineers by specialty.

I should have thought of this before, but such a chart is actually in existence! </p>

<p>Eh, I take that back. The chart seems pretty incomplete.</p>
