Civil engineering is trying to make life easier and more secure. It astounding the way people’s lives can change with a well-constructed highway, bridge, or park. It links people, creates commerce, and creates opportunities. Civil engineering just needs an idea and the will to bring that idea into reality. That is why it is so amazing. As a teenager, I have my head full of ideas and question I just an opportunity to polish my ideas and answer my questions in order to improve society in the future. I know I have the necessary to start a career in civil engineering at college, I have education, experience, talent in the fields it requires and especially the will to do it. Like I said before, I just need an opportunity. That is why I am asking you for a place at your prestigious
