To those that are involved with municiple/public works engineering.
I am curious on the regular types of duties. I'm thinking of making the transistion into a small town city engineering department. It seems exciting with a little more involvment in the construction and interaction with people. Please let me know what some good skills/qualities are desirable. I am comming from a structural and computer background, so I will be starting from the ground up in drainage, traffic, roads, surveying, etc. The job decriptions are extrememly general, and I don't give a solid impression of what the most common day to day tasks are.
Is an extensive background in hydrology and fluid mechanics needed. I think I can brush up on the fluids but a little concerned about my hydrology.
Thanks
