Coastal and Marine Engineering
Coastal and Marine Engineering involves designing and constructing structures and systems to protect and utilize the oceans and coastlines. This includes building things like harbors, breakwaters, seawalls, and tidal energy setups to safeguard coastal areas from erosion, flooding, and storms. It also covers activities like managing dredging, designing offshore platforms, and supporting offshore wind farms. The goal is to ensure safe, sustainable access to marine resources, protect communities, and support marine navigation and industry, all while considering environmental impacts. It blends engineering, environmental science, and oceanography to sustainably manage our coastlines and marine environments.
