The EGHG research group conducts highly interdisciplinary research, investigating a variety of problems concerning the application of geosciences to engineering studies, ranging from civil and environmental to energy engineering. Research projects involve both theoretical/numerical and experimental work, including site investigation and laboratory testing. In this respect, the EGHG group benefits from the constant collaboration with three experimental facilities of the University, namely the Geomechanics and Hydrogeology Laboratories, and the Valchiavenna Station for the study of the Alpine Environment.
