Hey!There

CIVIL ENGINEERING is an evergreen core stream,it still has great scope in government sector undertaking companies.If you are looking for PSUs,ESE and other goverment sector undertaking examination then you have great opportunities as CIVIL ENGINEERING has maximum vacancies in government sector.Very few companies used to visit for recruitment of civil engineering graduates,you can say it's demand is less in private sector undertaking companies.Focus on branch papers and don't think about scope and placement.There is always an option.

I hope this helps..
