Committee on Geological and Geotechnical Engineering

The Committee on Geological and Geotechnical Engineering (COGGE), established in 2001, is the focal point within the Board on Earth Sciences and Resources for scientific, technical, and public-policy issues pertaining to the engineering applications of Earth Sciences. The committee’s scope encompasses Earth processes and materials, including rock and soil mechanics, and focuses on safe and responsible human development, risk assessment, and mitigation of natural and anthropogenic hazards. In addition, the committee provides a forum for discussion among academic and professional groups, government agencies, and private industry to enhance national and international cooperation and exchange of information.
