Course Overview
The Geotechnical Engineering - 1 certification course is designed in a subjective and analytical manner. It focuses on the fundamental dimensions of substances from different engineering uses, starting from their roots. The fundamental classification, characterization, mechanical and mechanical characteristics of soils in detail are discussed in the course.
The intended outcome of the course is to familiarize students with the soil and to demonstrate their behavior during various industrial applications, such as frameworks. The Geotechnical Engineering - 1 certification will give a comprehensive framework of the field along with industrial and practical support. The course is designed for students who are already enrolled and studying the civil engineering field.
The Geotechnical Engineering - 1 training will bring advanced learning modules to the student’s perspective that will make them more effective and efficient in the respective field. The course will include practicals, assessments that will bring the student's individual learning perspective to the syllabus criteria of the programme throughout the course. The course will specifically target enhancing the learning of the student towards a particular topic of the curriculum. The course can make students more effective in a particular field.
