This MSc will develop students' understanding of the principles and theories behind ground engineering, from soil mechanics to site investigation, and from advanced soil testing to foundation design. Students are provided with the necessary skills to address technological challenges in the geotechnical engineering sector.
You’ll explore topics, including deep foundations in urban areas, deep water energy resources exploration, field monitoring, foundations for energy infrastructure and major bridges, and tunnelling.
Students will also have the opportunity to work on a research project, enabling them to acquire, analyse and critically evaluate data, then draw valid conclusions from it. It will test their understanding of scientific methodology, and allow them to graduate as a confident and capable geotechnical engineer.
