As one of the top-ranked programmes in its field, the Master’s programme in Geoengineering provides world-class education in the disciplines of geotechnics, rock mechanics and highway engineering. Programme graduates play a key role in urbanisation and circular economy, with their expertise helping to alleviate climate change and reduce the use of natural resources. Thanks to their highly appreciated knowledge and skills, as well as the programme’s close collaboration with the industry, graduates tend to find great job opportunities with ease.
As raw materials – used in construction materials, household items, energy, groundwater and basically all common goods – originate in the earth, experts in soils, rocks and their use are in high demand. Large construction projects, in particular, require engineers capable of designing the foundations, roads, excavations and tunnels, to name a few. Geoengineering Master's programme gives its students a great variety of relevant skills and knowledge.
Geoengineering graduates have:
Upon graduation from the Geoengineering Master's programme, graduates possess a comprehensive view of the lifespan of geotechnical structures, from the initial investigations, to design, construction, maintenance, and recycling.

Geoengineering Master's programme gives its students a great variety of relevant skills and knowledge.
Geoengineering graduates have:
- Extensive expertise in one or more of the fields: geotechnical engineering, rock engineering or highway engineering, with courses chosen by the students to suit their needs and interests.
- Applied knowledge in the specialization area: Through the studies, the student develops into a professional in at least one of the three specialisations of the Master's programme. (The specializations Geotechnical Engineering, Rock Engineering and Highway Engineering are presented below.)
- Numerical modelling skills. Graduates can choose a study path giving them world-class skills in advanced computational modelling.
- Deep understanding of tools and software. Graduates know the underlying logic and basic functions of the most frequently used tools and computer programmes within the industry.
- Co-operational and communications skills. Graduates are active team players and skilled team leaders who cope well with pressure in even the fastest-paced environments.
- Experience from the field. Graduates have hands-on experience related to real-world construction and testing.
