Civil Engineering/General 
The Forest Service needs Civil Engineers who 
are more than just field engineers. Total 
forest engineering demands skilled people 
in managerial positions—part of a team that 
plans, coordinates, and executes forest 
development. The makeup of this ‘‘pioneer 
team" reflects the diversity of the Forest's 
demands: Wildlife biologists, timber 
management specialists, forest protection 
experts, forest products specialists, range 
managers, landscape architects, soil and 
watershed specialists, recreation planners, 
business management specialists, structural 
architects, and civil engineers. Each brings his 
own particular skill to help solve the problems 
of overall forest management and development. 
The Civil Engineer is an important member 
of this pioneer team. He works with other 
members on a variety of engineering projects 
within the National Forests. His work begins 
with planning and follows through to 
project completion. 
His experience as a Civil Engineer is broad 
in scope and his career is enriched through 
self-study, continued education, professional 
registration, and technical society affiliation. 
Management training qualifies him for higher 
supervisory positions, such as a forest engineer, 
a member of the engineering staff of a 
Regional Office or design office or part of 
the staff of the Director, Division of 
Engineering, Washington, D.C.
