The International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering’s April 2020 ISSMGE News & Information Circular is available at https://www.issmge.org/news/issmge-news-and-information-circular-april-2020.

A message from the President of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), Charles Wang Wai Ng: “We are all under the threat by the COVID-19 and have suffered and affected by it one way or the other. Many universities and training centres are closed. Many students and engineers may not be able to access and receive necessary education and training. This is a serious disruption to their future. However, the free ISSMGE’s online “Virtual University” should be able to assist them while they are at home or under quarantine. We have developed seven full courses including: Course 1: Risk-Mitigation, monitoring & Observational Methods; Course 2: In Situ Testing; Course 3: Earthquake Engineering; Course 4: Foundations; Course 5: Soil Characterization; Course 6: Geo-Engineering Education; Course 7. Unsaturated Soil Mechanics. In addition, there are many webinars available online. Please visit the ISSMGE website to find out more details: http://virtualuniversity.issmge.org/”
