the best civil engineering branch i'd say.

[@HamzahAlHashemi]

Proud to be Civil and Geotechnical Engineer

[@HamzahAlHashemi]

***** Good , i wanna take a Master in Geotech. Also , yes really there is a lot of chance to work , i work in Engineering studies company (ACES) , you can see AECOM , BECHTEL , Parsons , and CCC , and many others :) Good luck

[@andrecarchi9499]

***** Hey where are you planning to do your master?

[@user-jr6jb9lt6w]

Hey, guys! Want to join to your conversation. I'm a civil engineer as well, but I've been working for 2,5 years in geotech (last half an year in HUESKER Synthetic GmbH). And I'm going to take a Master in this direction. I've heard that there is a lot of scholarships Master Programms in Niderlands. Have you heard any data about it?

[@artscreen3436]

for me...im steel a student of geotechnical technics...i love it

[@hamzamMR]

we all are , just the best discipline you can get into

[@uSeeGeo]

Great concise video! I'd love to use it on the first day of my undergraduate Geotechnical Engineering course.

[@ajotisan323]

Excellent job by PR committee of ISSMGE! I will definitely use this video clip in my class. It will be very handy for explaining other people what geotech is all about.

[@supriyam.d4075]

Exactly!!

[@zawayemin228]

Because having to deal with the very nature and need sharp insight and proper feeling of knowledge, Geotechnical Engineering is very much interesting as well as challenging field.

[@eri16riza]

to be my honour of you, Geotechnical Engineering... I am a geotech in Indonesia

[@danishshaikh9561]

What is the salary

[@sheetugroup8077]

Geotechnical engineering is a discipline within civil engineering that focuses on the behavior of natural geological materials in engineered systems.....

[@victorbabuneela6722]

Iam very intrested in geotechnical, i love this field.

[@hossinabdal2703]

Hi is any differency between soil engineering and geotechnical??

[@franzrojasluque4768]

Many greetings from Peru.

[@waynesmith3954]

Yes is a great opportunity to do this job this is one of the things I did for the state of New York Department of Transportation geotechnical engineering Superior van opportunity

[@ottoodattebayo]

working on an art that is not visible in the eye of the public is sexy. i love this branch

[@eritimes]

I am in love with this field.

[@brannonwinchester7054]

Pretty amazing how the structures like colloseum was built without much knowledge of soil mechanics

[@shqardo444]

Iam very interested in this field since my second year of the university

[@danishshaikh9561]

[@alexandraossalopez1932]

Excelente video!!

[@Jo_Axis_noncafe]

What interesting scholar its my experience and my favorable science

[@edwardbarnett6571]

You should check out the 30,000 underground Parrahub carpark.

[@afiqahzalikhabtabdulwahab4507]

i hope i can be like this one day. pray for me :)

[@beasby1914]

You a geotechnical engineer yet?

[@k4x4map46]

@@beasby1914 yup! have to study hard review many youtube vids for refresher--land that entry-level job!

[@_seeker_6042]

Hello everyone, I am a first year civil engineering student from the Philippines. I currently have a project which requires me to interview a licensed Geotechnical engineer. If you are willing to share your thoughts and experiences as a Geotechnical engineer feel free to leave a comment down below so that I can interview you through private message. There are only 4-6 questions to be answered. Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!! 😊

Hi i'm from Bangladesh. Im 2 nd year student diploma in civil Engineering.

Interesting science

[@pathiasmoono230]

This is awesome

How can someone be part of this professional body

[@ihtishamkhankhan7201]

Is geologist can work as a geotechnical engineer ?

[@haiajie527]

Sure, i m geologist too but now i'm work in getechnical engineer

[@fernandocastellanos8676]

I am a Geophysicist, but I want to focus on Geotechnical Engineering, do you guys recommend it? WIll you foresee jobs?

[@twizack22]

There will always be a job for Geotechnical Engineer. They play a critical part in new construction. They are also needed for solutions to land failures. It's a great field. I think your background in geophysics could be handy when developing engineering solutions to a given problem. I hope I was helpful Good luck!

[@Rey-oc8qw]

twizack22 hi. can I take Geotechnical engineering after graduating BS in environmental and sanitary engineering? thaanks 😇

[@twizack]

Rey Coladilla If you have a Civil Engineering degree then Geotechnical Engineering is definitely a field you can work in. You should research the requirements. It's a fun field.

[@Rey-oc8qw]

Isaac Ferguson Thank You. I am still deciding if I'm going to take Civil or Environmental Engineering. would there be a chance for me to have Geotechnical engineering if I would take Environmental Eng?

[@romkaquattro]

Hey fellow, did you manage your transition to geotechnical? Geophysics is total ass right now, it's a disgrace.

[@MahamudHasanKhanFAISAL]

I am member of Bangladesh Society of Geo-technical Engineering. How can I get a membership of " The International Society of Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE)" ?

[@jacquesdubois9929]

No Douche Bags allowed..and that means you !!

[@canadahigh]

@@jacquesdubois9929 talk to you governing body they should be able to tell you how to qualify for the membership in the international body.

[@dwightkematch7081]

guys how to a member in this society?

[@gilbertobanaga9874]

👍👍👍

[@TEMELTASCONSTRUCTION]

good work

[@ericcheese7594]

If it weren't for geotechinical engineers, we would all be up to our hips in quicksand right now!

[@melesebelay3070]

Geotechnical engineering is much close to Geologi sts or Civil engineers?

[@helmutkruger6714]

Melese Belay yes

[@PABZ1995]

It's geology as it applies to engineering so it's both but more civil engineering since what you study in geotech has to do with the application of soil's mechanical properties

[@deeksharajpoot5502]

OK
