Insights Which cities in India are the best for civil engineering jobs?
A career as a civil engineer is rewarding, lucrative, and challenging, making it a top career choice for students worldwide. Many civil engineers feel there is nowhere better in the world than India to practice their trade. India is a rapidly developing country with countless opportunities for construction professionals and engineers.
The country’s construction industry is expected to reach a staggering USD 1 trillion by 2030 and will account for 13% of the country’s GDP by 2025. That makes construction the country’s fastest-growing industry – and it’s always in need of skilled civil engineers.
More than 1.5 million engineers graduate in India every year, and there are a lot of civil engineering jobs in India to fill. But which cities in India are the best for civil engineering jobs? Read ahead as we scope out Bangalore, Mumbai, and Gurugram to give you the details you need about civil and structural engineering careers in India.
Bangalore
Bangalore is a modern, pleasant, and vibrant city that is often called “The Silicon Valley of India.” This city of 12 million is home to impressive companies like Google and some of the country’s leading universities. But, of course, this also makes it a great place for a graduate civil engineer – there are a ton of opportunities.
For instance, Bangalore is home to Atkins’ Global Design Centre (GDC), which has been recognized as an Employer of Choice in India. This is partly due to its diverse and inclusive culture; after all, Atkins, a member of the AtkinsRéalis Group, has also been named one of the top 100 companies in India for women. In addition, the Great Place to Work® Institute awarded Atkins the Great Place to Work Certification in 2020.
Mumbai There is no other place like Mumbai – there is a reason it’s nicknamed the Maximum City. This is a fast-paced and exciting city home to world-class restaurants, nightlife, and of course, leading global companies. But, even better, it also boasts many parks, gardens, and the iconic marine drive, giving you some peace and tranquility in this mega city.
Mumbai is home to the global headquarters of Tata, Air India, Reliance Industries Limited, and many more. Atkins recently opened a new office in Mumbai, so now is an excellent time for engineers to find new opportunities. You can check out some of the current civil engineering jobs available in Mumbai.
Gurugram
Gurugram (formerly Gurgaon) is another great place to live and work in India. It is often considered one of the best places in the country to strike that ever-important work/life balance that is so crucial for success. There are tons of young professionals and families in Gurugram, making it a top place to find jobs for graduate civil engineers in India.
Like the other cities mentioned above, Atkins has an office in Gurugram. From this office, engineers have the opportunity to work on various projects around the world. Again, this is a key hotspot for innovation – a hub for ideas and a chance to gain experience on global projects. You can learn more about working in the Gurugram office here.
