Penn State’s BS in Geological Engineering bridges the gap between geoscience and civil engineering. Students gain expertise in geomechanics, hydrology, environmental remediation, and infrastructure development in complex geological conditions. The program emphasizes real-world applications like tunneling, slope stability, foundation design, and site investigation. With hands-on fieldwork, advanced modeling tools, and interdisciplinary collaboration, graduates are equipped for careers in mining, construction, environmental consulting, and hazard mitigation.
