Geomechanics is integral to understanding a number of natural and engineering phenomena, and associated risks. This masters program involves courses by researchers from a top ranking department at the University of Grenoble, followed by a 1 semester individual research project. The objective is to provide an understanding of both the physics and the associated mathematics, which form the basis of an advanced engineering approach. The program will equip students who wish to proceed to higher level academic research and those interested in work with governmental and non-governmental organisations in applied geomechanics.
