The Engineering Geology group is a multi-disciplinary group that performs fundamental research to advance our understanding of Engineering Geology systems, and encodes these new insights into tools that are useful to practitioners.

The Engineering Geology group is involved in education at all levels, including Bachelor's, Master's and continuing education courses. At the Master's level, the Major in Engineering Geology provides an advanced understanding, technical knowledge, and practical skills in engineering geology and geotechnics. The programme is coordinated by Dr. Larissa de Palézieux.
