UP ICE 115th Anniversary Lecture Series | Lecture 1

In celebration of the 115th anniversary of the UP Civil Engineering program, the Geotechnical Engineering Group invites you to the first installment of the UP ICE Lecture Series:

Lecture Title: Towards Improved Understanding of Liquefaction Damage Due to Earthquakes

Speaker: Riwaj Dhakal, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of Canterbury, New Zealand
Geotechnical Engineer, Tonkin and Taylor, New Zealand

🗓️ Date: July 11, 2025 (Friday)
🕙 Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 NN
📍 Venue: ICE Board Room, University of the Philippines Diliman

This lecture will delve into the mechanisms of liquefaction-induced damage during earthquakes and explore how cutting-edge research can help us better assess risks and design more resilient geotechnical systems.

Open to all students, faculty, researchers, and practitioners in civil and geotechnical engineering. Join us as we deepen our understanding of geohazards and strengthen our commitment to building resilient communities.

Limited slots only so pre-register here through this link on or before July 10: bit.ly/ICELectureGEG
