Abstract

This paper examines the state-of-the-art associated with the management of geotechnical data and processes; training of geotechnical engineers in the private and public sectors; and attempts to predict the future of geotechnical engineering education. The paper also explores issues related to the awareness of the importance of geotechnical engineering by owners, engineers and the public at large, and how this awareness might be enhanced in the future.
