Jyotsna says:

Respected Sir,

I am a class 12 student, I would be appearing for boards this year. My parents are keen that i pursue civil engineering. However I am a little confused about the difference between civil engineering and civil structure engineering. Is it one and the same thing? Is structural engineering the same as civil structure engineering? How is architecture different from engineering? I have been reading a lot online about structural engineering being a branch of civil. Are structural engineering courses available in India?
Are there any basic books i could read on the topic to get a clear distinction between all of them ?

Thank you.
