My major is the least appreciated engineering major... and my pay grade, despite how grateful I am for it, will always be less than that of an electrical, or chemical, or pretty much any other engineering major. It's pretty depressing.
At least you'll still be an engineer! And I think civil engineering is probably the most useful out of all of the engineering things, but most other engineers won't dare to admit it. I mean, comp sci people think they're all that now that the world runs increasingly on computers, but tell me this: how will they get their computers to Indiana if they don't have a bridge to cross? How will they protect their computers if they do not have a well-designed building that isn't going to leak all over the electrical parts?
Even though it is the most important, it still sucks that you'll be getting less pay :(
1) That's a huge ass bridge to India. 2) Keep the computers in a building that doesn't need human interaction. No humans, no water necessary, unless you talk about weather and flooding. In that case, find a nice dark in-the-hill place.
:3
But even then, you need civil engineers to help expand third-world countries, keeping power plants going to help juice that huge non-human'd supercomputer... The world is always gonna need you, Marce, and one day, all of the Civies will boycott, and then the world will see how screwed they are without your specialty. And you'll be Queen of the new world. We'll call it... Marcellatopia. And I'll be your Secretary of State. :D
