civil engineering to builder. (1 Viewer)

[bigboyjames]

yep, thats wat i want to no.

after getting a degree in civil engineering and having a few years experience under my belt, is it possible to become a builder. as in the guy that gets the clients and builds the house for them (not physically). the guy that goes out finds an architect, gets designs, then hires proper buliders and them tilers and painters and concreters and when its all finishd he hands the house back to the owners.


just wanted to no if you have to go to tafe to do that if u have a degree in civil engineering? or can u just start doing that with ur engineering degree? thanx people!

I think you want Accredited Certification, which is Civil (or maybe other) + 3 years experience. But it depends on which state you live in, and stuff. You have to check yourself really.
