Geoenvironmental Engineering, Sustainability, and Resiliency webinar series spring schedule
Professor Krishna Reddy, of civil, materials, and environmental engineering at UIC, has announced the spring 2025 schedule for the “International Webinar Series on Geoenvironmental Engineering, Sustainability, and Resiliency.”
The online webinar series begins Thursday, Jan. 16, with “User-Friendly Interactive Models for Groundwater Education—Still Useful After 25 years!” and runs until May 1.
The webinars are free, but registration is required. Register for all or selected webinars at https://uic.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUpdeqsrDgoE9JGBwjrAYs1M5KlSPajt2yG.
During the webinars, experts from around the world – Australia, Denmark, India, Indonesia, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, United States – will share their knowledge and expertise on a wide range of topics related to geoenvironmental engineering (land contamination, waste management, etc.), sustainability, and resiliency, and provide insight on how to deal with those challenges in a sustainable way.
Geoenvironmental engineering is a multidisciplinary field that draws upon a wide range of scientific and engineering principles, including geotechnical engineering, environmental engineering, geology, hydrology, geochemistry, microbiology, sustainability, and resilience to address some of the most pressing environmental and infrastructure issues of our time.
The webinars are geared toward young researchers and practicing engineers who are interested in learning more about the latest developments and best practices related to geoenvironmental engineering. The series is also for industry professionals, from various related sectors, who are looking to stay informed about the latest research trends in the field. Climate enthusiasts, environmental scientists, students, and other individuals interested in learning about the challenges related to geoenvironmental engineering and their effects on climate change and sustainability are encouraged to register to participate in the webinars.
The series is supported by the ISSMGE Technical Committee 215 on Environmental Geotechnics (TC 215) and the ASCE/G-I Geoenvironmental Engineering Committee (GEC).
