Engineering Geology in the Civil Engineering Curriculum

For this post I’m featuring an article by J. David Rogers, Professor and Karl F. Hasselmann Chair in Geological Engineering, Department of Geosciences and Geological and Petroleum Engineering, Missouri University of Science and Technology, which he entitled  Disappearing Practice Opportunities: Why Are Owners And Engineers Taking Increased Risks? What Can Be Done To Counter This Threat?  It’s been around a while but bears repeating, especially for one thing: why we need to restore engineering geology to the civil engineering curriculum.
