Programme overview

Geotechnical engineering, also known as Geotechnics, is the application of scientific methods and engineering principles to the acquisition, interpretation, and use of knowledge of materials for the solution of engineering problems and the design of engineering works. It is the applied science of predicting the behavior of the soil, its various materials and processes towards making the soil more suitable for human activities and development.

Program Objectives

The objectives of the post-graduate program in Geotechnology Engineering is to prepare the Engineers to R&D construction sites, conduct lab less, create design for structures, construction and ensure safety, security, economy and environmental-friendly construction.

Program Outcomes

The program enable the students to use the principles of soil mechanics and rock mechanics. It also helps them to investigate surface conditions and materials, determines the relevant physical/ mechanical and chemical properties of the these materials. it also gives the knowledge of evaluating the stability of natural shapes and man-made deposits.

Career Path

The students after completion of this course will have an in depth knowledge in Geotechanical Engineering. Geotechnical engineers are involved in stages like

  • Site supervision
  • Inspection of soil, rocks, bedrock
  • Project analysis
  • Design and construction of foundation and other necessary structures etc.

Usually, their job involves site work, supervision, design, cost estimation as well as project management.
