Do engineers only work at a desk, or do they also do field work to create stuff?

For example I want to be mechanical engineer, but I want to help building stuff like: Creating houses where the walls can absorb energy and use it or a Space plane that can launch form the ground. I wonder how long does it take to actually work as an active engineer? #engineering #engineer...
