• 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)
