When pursuing a career in Civil Engineering is better to specialize in one specific topic, or to have a broader overview?

I know that civil engineering is just a basic overview of most types of engineering, but i don't know if getting a degree in just generic civil engineering is better than a degree in a specific area of civil engineering. #civil-engineering

Is it better to go to a college for their offered scholarships or to go to a college that may be more prestigious?

I am caught between two colleges. Both are of equal consideration, however one has offered more aid than the other. However, this is at the cost that other college is ranked higher for my interested field. #college #scholarships

Why do many students not complete undergraduate degree after 4 years?

Many schools show low percentage of 4 year graduation rates. Are these percentages for BS or BA degrees? Any why does it seem to take most student longer than 4 years to finish their undergrad degree? #academic-advisor

How important are job co-op opportunities to employment after graduation?

I am interested in civil engineering. Some of the colleges I have looked at require a co-op, and others do not. It seems like a co-op would be a good idea. Is there any hard data on co-op opportunities and whether they led to employment quicker? #engineering #career #services

Initially I planned on going to college to obtain a bachelor's degree in business management, until I realized how many different categories of business management there are. I would like to know how do I narrow my options down in this particular field?

How can one get the most exposure during the first year of college, in order to make an educated decision when choosing the major/minor?
