Like a civil engineer, just not as up tight. They perform managerial tasks on the job site as well as design engineering (i.e. temporary structures). They spend a lot of time on the job site overseeing the actual construction of a project and making sure it gets finished in a cost efficient, safe, and timely manner.
The civil engineers don't like it when they find out that construction engineers make more money than they do!

The sophisticated and dignified manner in which to address someone who's been given the mind numbing task of building cardboard boxes for wine bottles.
At work:
Temp:"What are we doing today?"
Supervisor:"Same as yesterday, building more boxes."
Temp:"How do I put that down in my resume?"
Supervisor:"Write down that you've been a fiber construction engineer."

A school with the most unnecessary long name. Ran by a 6' 6" 300 pound ego maniac who makes students wear uniforms but yet promotes creativity. Said to be a noteworthy school for its construction trades and engineering courses, but it is in fact only a small part of the curriculum. Just a very fake school in general, bound to be housing some of NYC's most dangerous kids by 2020.
Random Nigga: What school you go to? Me: High school for construction trades, engineering, and architecture.Random Nigga: What the hell is that?
