25th European Young Geotechnical Engineers' Conference
Description
The Romanian Society for Geotechnical and Foundation Engineering (RoSGFE) was invested by the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, through the Vice-President for Europe, Professor Antonio Gens, to organise the 25th European Young Geotechnical Engineers Conference.
The organising committee is delighted to invite you in Sibiu, Romania from 21st to 24th June, 2016 to attend, what we are sure will be, an outstanding conference.
CONFERENCE VENUE
The conference will take place in Sibiu, also known as Hermannstadt, a beautiful old city from Transylvania, the European Capital of Culture for the year 2007, Europe's 8th most idyllic place to live (ranked by Forbes). The conference will be held at Hotel Ibis Sibiu, in the very center of the city. The accommodation for the delegates, the welcome reception, the breakfasts, the lunches and the conference sessions will take place in Hotel Ibis Sibiu. The dinner from 22nd and the banquet from 23rd of June will be organised at restaurants in Sibiu in places with strong Romanian traditional accents.
The technical visit will be on Transfagarasan, one of the most beautiful roads in the world, with a length of approximate 90 km, built in 1970 - 1974. The road crosses the Carpathian Mountains in the highest section, the Fagaras Mountains, connecting the historic regions Transylvania and Wallachia.
PARTICIPANTS
Young researchers under the age of 35 years are invited to attend the conference. Participants’ selection is the responsibility of the European Member Societies of ISSMGE that will appoint maximum 2 "nominated participants". If a country does not send representatives to the
conference, they can be replaced with "non-nominated participants" from other countries.
All participants must submit a paper and deliver an oral presentation of 8-10 minutes. The organising committee invited several geotechnical engineering professionals to deliver keynote and invited lectures.
The official language of the conference is English.
