Collaborative Graduate Program in GeoEngineering
Unique in North America, the program (MASc and PhD) is a collaboration between three engineering departments at two universities.
The Department of Civil Engineering is home to the Coastal Engineering Laboratory, Kennedy Field Station, and the GeoEngineering Lab. These cutting-edge facilities allow us to offer unique hands-on learning experiences for our undergraduate students. They enable our world-leading faculty and graduate students to conduct research tackling the most pressing challenges facing modern societies. Our research activity is generally classified under the research areas of environmental, hydrotechnical, geotechnical, and structural engineering.
