Geotechnical Engineering is a specialization in the Master's Degree Programme in Civil Engineering.
This specialization is for you who want to learn more about the treatment of materials such as soils and rocks to find solutions to problems using hydrological, geological and geophysical engineering.
It consists of two semesters that can be taken individually or in consecutive semesters if you want to study at OsloMet for a whole year.
Exchange students are allowed to select courses from only one specialization to avoid scheduling conflicts. It is also recommended to choose courses from a single semester, either semester 1 or 3, if you are arriving in the fall.
Admission requirements
You must be enrolled in a master’s programme in Engineering (Civil, Geotechnic, Marine or related fields).
