Princeton University Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Geological Engineering Program Geological Engineering is the application of science to problems and projects involving the Earth, its physical environment, earth materials, and natural resources. The curriculum is offered in a cooperative effort between the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Geosciences, and is specially designed for the student who wishes to build upon the freshman and sophomore mathematics and engineering courses as a basis for studies in the earth sciences. These are followed by a sequence of four Engineering Design courses which are complemented by Program Electives. The Program Electives should form a coherent sequence of at least four courses in the student's area of interest. Geological field experience is most desirable for students interested in the profession, and thus, the summer field course, GEO 300, is held at the field camp in Red Lodge, Montana.
Financial assistance is available.
All Classes C-319F, Engineering Quad. Four or more Program Electives must be selected from the following list of recommended courses. A maximum of one 200-level course may be chosen as a Program Elective. These Program Electives must form a coherent sequence in the student's area of interest.
