If you use the US English spelling of the word realization rather than the British one, you will discover several tens of Google hits that will help you understand the term.

Although engineering has always had a very practical aspect to it, the social sciences are more often concerned with understanding and explanation, rather than finding ways to implement the social changes that they often prescribe -- hence the word realization engineering.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I don't think "project engineering" restricts the meaning to construction work only, although it can cover construction work.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Johannes Gleim: I was project engineer, but did not supervise any constructional work. As such I was charged with the design and planification of the construction.
