       Master program in Geotechnical Engineering and Management (GEM) emphasizes on solving of geotechnical problems related to soft and thick clay deposits facing infrastructure development of major cities in the Red River and Mekong delta (i.e., Hanoi, HCM City, Can Tho etc.), and expecially for construction of oil and gas facilities on the coastal areas.

   The participants will be provided opportunity to apply up-to-date knowledge in geotechnical engineering and management for infrastructure development projects, including site investigation, geoexploration, soil characterization, soil improvement, tunneling in soft ground, foundation design, computational geotechnics, mitigation of the geo-hazards.

     Offered by one of the most prestigious geotechnical engineering programs in Asia, the PME-GEM program caters to the major geotechnical and construction companies (local and overseas), operating in Vietnam.

     The program was first launched on April 2009 with students from well-known companies in the South of Vienam, (i.e., Anh Vu GeoTechnical and civil engineering Co.
