Geo-Engineering

MSc Programme

The biggest risks in civil engineering are associated with the ground. Geo-engineers with a thorough understanding of the behaviour of soils and rocks are therefore urgently needed. The Geo-Engineering master track is devised to convey this fundamental knowledge and its application in the design of geotechnical constructions.

Geo-Engineering encompasses topics as diverse as foundation engineering, underground space technology, dykes and embankments, offshore engineering, dredging, geoenvironmental engineering and engineering geology. Geo-engineers face new challenges as we try to build a more sustainable society. We increasingly need to build on, in, under and with soils that may be classified as problematic, such as very soft soils, saturated soils, polluted soils and reclaimed soils. We also need to prolong the lifetime of existing structures, and minimise the risk and impact of geo-hazards. It is expected that construction and exploitation

activities will move to unknown territories deeper underground, as well as further and deeper offshore to the Arctic and to less favourable subsurface conditions.

Programme

The Master’s programme in Geo-Engineering at TU Delft equips students with fundamental knowledge that can easily be transferred and applied in specialist areas. The emphasis is on problem-solving based on a thorough understanding of the underlying principles, with students obtaining a wide skill-set that is of benefit to industry, public authorities and
