Course Details

Geotechnical, Construction, and Structural Engineering, MEng

Course Description

The Master of Engineering (MEng) in Geotechnical, Construction, and Structural Engineering (GeoConStruct) program was designed in collaboration with leading engineers in practice to develop a course of study that recognizes that geotechnical engineering, construction engineering, and structural engineering are practiced together and should be taught together in an integrated manner. Its purpose is to educate engineers for practice, for excellence in design and execution now, laying the groundwork for practice demands 25 years from now. It is a program that balances theory and practice, building on the foundation of an undergraduate degree in civil engineering. The MEng is practice-focused and entirely course-based. Students who wish to undertake a degree requiring a project or a research thesis should consider the Master of Science in Civil and Infrastructure Engineering with emphasis in geotechnical or construction or structural engineering, or a program of study that creates a coherent integrated program of study between these three. All courses offered for the MEng program are open to MS students.
