During National Engineers Week, many tech-oriented civil engineers naturally turn to social media to express love for their profession, why it deserves greater appreciation, and what makes it a rewarding career. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other online communities have been flooded with posts and photos from engineers promoting their profession. Here are some highlights.
In many cases, EWeek simply starts conversations about civil engineering.
