Environmental Engineering – it treats chemical, biological and thermal waste; it concentrates on e.g. water purification, waste water and solid waste treatment, air pollution, hazardous waste management and it is also in charge of giving information on possible environmental consequences
Geotechnical Engineering – this branch is based on the knowledge from geology, material science, mechanics and hydraulics; it focuses on economical foundations, retaining walls as well as similar structure designs
Structural Engineering – it provides structural design and structural analysis of buildings ( bridges, towers, tunnels); next, it identifies the kind of loads acting on structures and it takes into account strength, stiffness and stability of the structures
Transportation Engineering – the main emphasis is placed on moving people and goods efficiently; also it pays attention to designing, constructing and maintaining of transportation infrastructure (streets, highways, rail systems, airports, ports and mass transit)
Municipal Engineering – this branch of civil engineering deals with municipal infrastructure; it designs, constructs and maintains pavements, water supply networks, sewers, street lighting, municipal solid waste management, public parks, bicycle paths
Water Resource Engineering – it concerns collection and management of water; the branch is connected with hydrology, environmental science, meteorology, geology, resource management; it is closely related to the design of pipelines, water supply network, drainage facilities and canals
Material Engineering – this branch deals with various kinds of materials, such as concrete, mix asphalt concrete, metals; its attention is drawn to increasing strength of aluminium, steel, polymers and carbon fibres
Coastal Engineering – the main task of this branch is to manage the coastal areas; it also tackles with the flooding defence and erosion
Construction Engineering – it provides planning and execution of the designs from transportation, site development, hydraulic, environmental, structural and geotechnical engineers; it plays a role in business in drafting and reviewing contracts, evaluating logistical operations and prices monitoring
Surveying – it is a process when a surveyor measures certain dimensions which occur on the Earth surface; land surveying is used for a boundary establishing and for making subdivision plans; construction surveying includes existing condition survey, verifying the structure location during construction and survey at the end
