REMINDER! Earlybird Registrations close 30 June

Written on June 23rd, 2010 by Kateno shouts

Earlybird Registrations for the 11th Congress of the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment, IAEG2010 close 30 June!

Engineering geology now extends into a host of linked fields: disaster risk management and climate change, preservation of lifelines, geophysics, interpretation of satellite imagery, communication, instrumentation, mining, tunnelling, groundwater, rehabilitation and brown-field development, wine, recyclable materials, ethics, and education. Communication with non-specialists and developing ‘green’ solutions has never been more important and the industry is evolving tools and emerging ideas to more appropriately achieve this. This Congress brings together engineering, science and practice to focus on the very real effects of active geological processes on communities and infrastructure and their development.

Includes some 570 papers, including 20 keynote and invited speakers from 46 countries.

Super Earlybird Registrations

Written on March 16th, 2010 by Kateno shouts

It is now just 15 days until the close of super earlybird registrations for the Congress. Have you registered?

There has been a HUGE response to the call for papers, with almost 600 papers received.

With this level of participation, the Congress is destined to be an event not to be missed.

The Congress will bring together a unique mix of leading international practitioners in the engineering geology, geotechnical and risk management fields. The themes of IAEG2010 investigate the continuum between engineering geology and geotechnical engineering and its application, bridging the gap between theory and practise, changing the lives of real people around the world.

Listen to and discuss state-of-the-art practice in these fields, upskill on the latest research and its applications, and learn from application of different practices in international case studies.

Don’t forget, the cheaper earlybird registration closes on 31 March. Saving you $400 NZD on the full registration cost, the super earlybird is well worth it!
