Geological Engineering
Geological engineering is a hybrid discipline that comprises elements of civil engineering, mining engineering, petroleum engineering, and earth sciences. Geo-engineers work in areas of mining such as: mining, energy, infrastructure which is underground transportation systems and isolations of nuclear and hazardous wastes, environment which is groundwater flow.
Geological engineering is a application with a combination of geology and engineering science to design, involving rock, soil, groundwater and mineral resources
What do geological engineers do?
They carry out site investigations for dams, plants, roads, railways, housing projects, mines and quarries, pipelines, petroleum production, forestry operations and a variety of other things. They interact with civil engineers to design essential parts of projects. They prospect for minerals, building material resources and drinking water. They carry out hazard and risk assessments and mapping for landslides and earthquakes. -DJ



Hi, I think the way that you added a few pictures to entice my eyes really caught my attention and made Geological Engineering look exciting. Breaking the text up into sections makes it easy to follow and understand. The blog feels like it is a little light on information, but overall it was to the point and easy to read, it made me more interested in geological engineering.
