Ground Engineering starts search for early career contributors Ground Engineering Magazine (GE) has launched its early career contributor initiative, which replaces the previous student editor role. This new scheme is open to a broader range of early career professionals, including undergraduates, master’s students, PhD candidates, (degree) apprentices, recent graduates, and early career professionals with less than five years of work experience (or less than three years if they have completed their PhD). Anyone studying or working within geotechnics, civil engineering, construction, engineering geology or other geoscience-related disciplines – and with a keen interest in ground engineering – is welcome to apply. Selected contributors will have the opportunity to write for GE’s Early Career blog - currently still known as the Student Editor blog - with posts published regularly on the GE website. While this is an unpaid position, selected contributors will receive free entry to GE conferences and the GE Awards in 2025, as well as a year’s free print and digital subscription to the magazine. To apply for the early career contributor initiative, please fill out this survey form: https://lnkd.in/eECeQu_2 The deadline for applications is midnight on 8 November 2024. #groundengineering #geotechnical #geoscience #students #earlycareer
