Excel is the widely used software in construction industry usage - 99.99%

Autocad is used by - less than 5% engineers in Civil Engineering Industry.

Same case with other softwares like staad, revit etc.

so excel your skills in excel, it will benefit you.
the another useful programs are
Microsoft Project
Microsoft Word

Having a very basic knowledge of softwatre is enough for civil engineers in following(if you do not know how to use below software, it does not matter to get job as that is not the main work of an engineer):

Auto Cad
Primavera
Revit
Staad Pro
BIM
and whatever name available in market is not more than a crap, because those applications are not used by more than 99% civil engineers in their day to day work.

So if you are studying above software's, then there is always a requirement of to be best in that software, else no body will recruit you for doing work on that software, if you are not expert in it.
