A civil engineer job experience

I'm a senior in high school and I am interested in engineering, specifically civil engineering. I need a part time job and I am not really wanting a retail job. What I would really want is a job that is somehow related to an engineering field, a job that would help me become familiar with the engineering world, but I don't know where I could look. Any suggestions?

    Dear Elizabeth, I would suggest that you explore the Pathways Programs that offer federal internships for students from high school through post-graduate school. Also, the Conference of Minority Conference of Minority Transportation Officials (COMTO) and the Women in Transportation Seminar (WTS) do help with internship opportunities that are designed specifically for high school students. The best way to find out more about the latter opportunities is to check out the local chapters of the said organizations.
    I hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Marie
