Five years ago this journal reported that the civil engineering profession was relatively invisible to young people, that universities were struggling to fill places and that many practitioners were dissatisfied. Since then there has been a welcome improvement. The same authors now find that civil engineering is featured regularly on television, applications to universities are up and practising civil engineers seem happier. This coincides with civil engineers enjoying a relatively high workload and being offered improved salaries and more flexible, family-friendly working patterns. Unchanged, however, is the very low proportion of women entering the profession.
