ASCE’s Career Discovery Series connects prospective civil engineers and individuals transitioning into a civil engineering career with professionals across five distinct career paths to learn about the work they do every day.  During each session, panelists will share first-hand experiences from their career path with additional time for attendees to ask questions. 

This session will be held on February 25 from 1-2 PM ET and will focus on Exploring Engineering Careers in Consulting.  It will be followed by three more sessions exploring civil engineering careers in education, industry and construction.  Sessions will be held on the fourth Thursday of each month from 1-2 PM ET from until May 2021.
