If you’re interested in sustainability, risk management, and creating a safer world, Geological Engineering gives you the opportunity to examine geological processes first hand through field courses on campus, northern Ontario, and beyond Waterloo’s program is one of only two in Ontario. You’ll take Civil Engineering classes where you’ll learn design and problem solving skills. You’ll also take Earth Sciences classes to acquire a solid background in geosciences. Meanwhile, through co op, you'll gain two years of related work experience. You'll learn to develop energy and mineral resources sustainably, ensure the safety of dams, pipelines, and tunnels, assess risks for landslides and earthquakes, or remove hazardous contamination from groundwater. At Waterloo, you’ll also study carbon sequestration, geothermal energy, and natural resource development, including critical minerals essential for electric vehicles and clean technologies. Become savvy in the latest innovations in sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and satellite imagery too. Upon graduation, you'll be eligible for two professional designations: Professional Engineer and Professional Geoscientist. Make the world your classroom or office
