The Local Organising Committee is proud to announce that a Coastal Engineering Short Course conducted by UNSW Sydney’s Water Research Laboratory will be held over the two days prior to the 2019 Coasts & Ports Conference.
This course will cover the following:
• An overview of coastal engineering fundamentals
• Beach morphology and coastal hazards
• Current practice for coastal structures
• New technologies and state of the art professional practice
• Physical and numerical modelling
• Practical case studies
This is the ideal course for:
• Graduate or recently recruited coastal and maritime engineers
• Professionals/researchers from other disciplines working in the coastal zone, such as planners or other engineering practitioners
• Officers from all levels of government involved in regulating our coasts
• Project managers engaging coastal engineering sub-contractors
Sessions will be run by industry practitioners and experts including staff from UNSW Sydney’s Water Research Laboratory and other organisations:
• James Carley (UNSW WRL)
•
•
Ian Coghlan (Course Coordinator,
Karen Palmer (UTAS)
PRE-CONFERENCE SHORT COURSE
What 2017 delegates said about the short course:
“This course was enlightening! I was fascinated with each session.
Great introduction for coastal engineering topics. Presentations were smooth and well-practised.”
“Presenters knew their stuff and were practitioners in this space.”
“Good wide coverage but with the ability to ask specific detailed questions. Very clear definition of problems I’m currently involved with.”
“I learned the requirements of coastal engineering design and a lot of real problems that engineers face in the design.”
“Very enjoyable course. Good variety.”
