for other people. For example: The
Belgian title “Burgerlijke bouwkundig ingenieur” is someone who fulfil the deducation as a civil engineer (buildings, bridges,…) But the Belgian title “Burgelijke ingenieur werktuigkunde” is someone who fulfil the education as a Mechanical Engineer, so not as a Civil Engineer!!!

On at least three Air Force bases with which I have been familiar, the persons performing building maintenance, such a repairing plumbing leaks, and grounds maintenance, such as grass cutting, have indeed been referred to as "civil engineers". They may be seen operating maintenance equipment (such as

As a
Belgian student, I have the following question: Can anyone give me the reason why the Flemish (Belgian) title “burgelijk ingenieur” is translated tot “civil engineer”. It is by law prohibited to translate Belgium titles of engineers to english titles. This is a huge mistake en very confusing

may cause a certain confusion for
English speakers, since the Belgian civil engineer may have a different speciality than mere civil engineering. However, it is an official title, and it should be mentioned in the article as such as to avoid the confusion with for example industrial engineers, or

Such a law only applies within
Belgium - it is perfectly legal for an American or Australian or South African (or Russian, for that matter) to translate titles into English. However, you have a valid complaint regarding the accuracy of the translation. Without finding a reference, I'd guess that

Also, it makes no sense to talk about Civil
Engineering as a common term for most engineering disciplines. That belongs in a seperate historical section only. The article should however adhere to the present usage of the term to avoid confusion. This goes mostly for the "Civil Engineering"
240:
There is good reason for this, because the "civilingenjör" title is highly regarded in
Scandinavia, more so than masters of science for example. This particular track of education also has a high international regard. However it could possibly be forked of to some subentry like
429:
work in that field, but can just as well work in any other field of engineering. The "civil" part nowadays just means that one has achieved a high enough level of education in the choosen field. Thus, the scandinavian title is best treated elsewhere, for example in

article. However the current recession has affected different parts of the world in different ways; here in
Australia, the government has set aside money to stimulate projects, so construction engineers probably won't have a problem finding work there.

called civil engineers then please supply it as the commanders at these bases are apparently unaware of it. Also please be aware that civilian regulations on such things do not generally apply to the military. I am thus reverting the removal.

That what could be directly translated as "Civil engineer" instead means a degree at roughly Master level (in Sweden, up until recently, a 4.5 year university education). See the sections about the title in different countries in the

I do not agree with the merge. Instead, I propose that this page be renamed, possibly split and/or disambiguated (as suggested by
Andejons above). The renaming would be to something like: Civil Engineers Worldwide.

Sivilingeniør however is equivalent to a postgraduate degree in
England or Master's degree in the States. It requires in most cases a 5 year education at a university or university college.

In Spain, a Civil
