This document outlines an advanced geotechnical engineering course, including its teaching scheme, content syllabus, applications in construction, and future career opportunities. The course is 3 credit hours with lectures, an in-semester exam, end semester exam, and term work. The 6 units in the syllabus cover topics like soil classification, earth retaining structures, shear strength, stress path, stabilization, and ground improvement. Software like GeoStudio, Plaxis, and Midas are used for design and analysis. Upon completing the course, career opportunities are available at companies like Larsen & Toubro, Systra, and Tata Consulting Engineers.
