It really depends on your interests. Civil engineers are more into city planning and structural engineering, etc. Mechanical engineers have endless possibilities and generally make more money, however, with growing cities and green building, there will always be an endless need for civil engineers.

    Mechanical engineers generally make more money, and have more options. I'm not so sure about this, but I think marine/underwater tech engineers make more money than mechanical engineers...

    I don't know much about the differences in duties, but a civil engineer will typically make less money than a mechanical engineer but jobs will be more available for a civil engineer.

    I attend a university with a very strong engineering program and I know for a fact that mechanical engineers make MORE money than civil engineers do.

    I am more intrigued by mechanical engineers but civil is cool too.
    I am assuming you are interested in one or the other.
    Which way are you leaning more towards?

      You have to look at everything though. Like pay scale. Being a civil engineer might be more productive if you wanted to have a family.

    Civil Engineer would probably make more money. But I wouldn't base it on money. It all comes down to what you would enjoy the most.

      I think everyone second guesses decisions they make in life. I wouldn't dwell on it. Soon enough you will embrace your decision and not second guess yourself.

    You do what interests you more; what would you rather build if money were no object?

    At my school both of those are the butt of all jokes... but electrical/computer engineering are the best..

    When ever someone fails we tell them they should enter the mechanical program lol... Most people change majors to mechanical but mechanicals never step up to electrical/computer engiering

    there are lots of factors to be considered, what you love doing the most that's the most important factor for me , cause an engineer who isn't passionate about what he does, will quit or half ass his job, cause engineering is crazy hard, for example Adrian Newey is the chief engineer for red bull f1 racing, he spends months working on the car engineering new parts and what not , and even when they are on a plane back from a race, he still has his old sketch book , that's someone who loves his jobs, and that's what makes the difference, every genius idea he makes in the pinnacle of motor racing finds it's way to road cars, same goes for other amazing f1 engineeris , think ABS, Traction Control, Drag Reduction, Kers, seamless gear change, carbon fiber, floppy pedals all these were invented by F1 engineers, they don't get paid say like bio tech engineers but they make their mark,
    I my self I'm in the field of software engineering, I love doing it cause I love artificial intelligence and I find it fascinating which will help me withstand the crazy hours, I put looking at weird algorithms :p or insolvable problems
    now if money is what makes you tick here are few links , keep in mind what's the sect, that's an other money factor

    mechanical, because if you combine mechanical with electrical, nuclear or something tha closely realtes to it you will have a better oppurtunity for a job and get paid more.

    I don't know exactly what you mean by the word "better". Both majors are respectful, viable for a very long time, and have limitless possibilities in terms of job offers and money making. I am one semester away from becoming an Electrical Engineer (specialized in communication and networks) and as I went through this journey, I realized that engineering is tough and requires a lot of seriousness, assiduousness and hard work. If you are planning on selecting a major based on what people think is cooler or better, then my advice to you is to choose neither. However, if you were asking this just for the fun of it, then it sounds like you are comparing apples to oranges (forgive the cliche) as those two majors do NOT relate in almost any way.

    Keep well. :)

    Depends on where that engineer works... there are plenty of mechanical engineers that make huge amounts of money when they work at one of the aerospace companies or one of the many defense contractors.

    Civil engineering, these days the only ones that pay well are those that have huge amounts of experience, can perform in O&G related applications and a few odd and highly specialized fields you can forget about making any money... increasingly being outsourced and some of the biggest suppliers of civil engineering services are those from China.

    -Sales Engineer :)
