Events & Courses

A whole-day meeting is being convened under the auspices of HOGG, the GSL’s Engineering Group (EGGS) and promoted by the Institution of Royal Engineers.

It will follow the precedent of a meeting in November 2009 on Military Aspects of Hydrogeology. Like that meeting, it is hoped that it will generate manuscripts to be worthy of peer-reviewed publication as one of the GSL’s Special Publications.

The meeting is scheduled for 2016 to mark the centenary of first deployment of an engineering geologist by the British Army to support combat operations - Major (later Sir) Edgeworth David on the Western Front in 1916 - with a book publication in 2018 to help mark the centenary of the end of the First World War.

The programme, details of the speakers, and a registration form may be downloaded on the right.

Online registration and payment of the registration fee may be achieved via the HOGG website.
