A person who organizes and manages any enterprise, especially a business, usually with considerable

initiative and risk.

Entrepreneur + Capital = Products + Customers = Business.

What is Civil Engineering?

Civil engineering is arguably the oldest engineering discipline. It deals with the built environment and can be

dated to the first time someone placed a roof over his or her head or laid a tree trunk across a river to make it

easier to get across

Civil engineering is an exciting profession because at the end of the day you can see the results of your work,

whether this is a completed bridge, a high-rise building, a subway station, or a hydroelectric dam.
