This specialty now has an academician, four professors, eight
associate professors and senior engineers, and four lecturers and
engineers. The specialty has a research institute for geotechnical
mechanics and geotechnical engineering, in which there is a rock mechanics
laboratory, a soil mechanics laboratory, a mechanics laboratory, and
a field testing laboratory. In recent years, this specialty has achieved
a series of important scientific findings in such projects as Natural
Science Fund of the State, Special Fund of the State Education Commission,
etc., and many theses have been published.
I. Training Objectives
The degree winners should have solid basic knowledge of geotechnical
engineering, and know quite well about the developing direction of
geotechnical mechanics and engineering. They have the specialized
knowledge of geotechnical engineering, and have the ability of experimental
research and theoretical analysis so that they can correlate with
practical problems relating to the specialty and make innovative research.
They are able to consult specialized books and periodicals of this
specialty in foreign language as well as write the thesis summary.
II. Main Research Directions
1、Basic theory and method in deformation observation
2、Deformation and bearing mechanism of pile foundation
3、Deep excavation and slope stability
4、Numerical analysis of geotechnical engineering
5、Experiment and theory in damage and evolution of rock mass
6、Numerical simulation of rock mass initial stress field
7、Dynamic stability of underground structure
III. Length of Schooling and Credits
The full-time master degree candidates’ length of schooling is 2.
5 years. The total credits must get requested 32 credits at least;
among them the credits of degree lessons must get requested 19. Semi-sabbatical
master degree candidates’ period of schooling can be prolonged for
another half a year or one year as approved.

V. Middle Examinations
Master degree candidates are supposed to have an all-round exam
once a month in the fourth term to check whether their credits and
grades in course study meets demands, by which to determine whether
they can enter the stage of the academic dissertation. Its details
refer to the relevant regulations of the graduate institution.
VI. Opening Report
The opening report of master degree candidates should be finished
before the end of the third term (at the latest the fourth term after
in months), which gives an evaluation on the range, meaning, value,
contents, approaches and conditions of the research subject. The opening
report must be verified by 3-5 professors or associate professors
organized by this department. The reading amount of documents is no
less than twenty.
VII. Academic Dissertation
Master's academic dissertation must be finished independently by
graduate students under the guidance of the tutor. The academic dissertation
requires a clear concept, a proper argument, a rigorous analysis,
correct calculations, reliable data, terse sentences and clear charts,
all of which reflects the solid theoretical foundation, the stronger
independent working ability and fine style of study that the graduate
students have. The full text is generally no less than 30,000 words.
First draft of the dissertation should be finished one month before
the end of the schooling, and after it being checked and approved
by the tutor, the department will then organize an evaluation and
an oral defense.
VIII. Thesis publishing
Publishing of the thesis refers to “Requirement for graduate students
of publishing scientific paper during learning at Shanghai Jiaotong
University”.
