Geotechnical engineering may not be the most visible aspect of infrastructure, but it plays a crucial role in preventing complications before they occur, says Mina Lee.
A professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Dr. Lee argues the approach is essential for the stability of buildings, roads, and foundations.
“We not only delve into the intersection of geotechnical engineering but also how it aligns with sustainable development, particularly focusing on Sustainable Development Goal 15 — Life on Land,” she says.
