[Malay Ghose Hajra]

Online Graduate Certificate in Coastal Engineering 

The University of New Orleans, Louisiana 

 

Students take four (4) graduate-level courses covering (i) Ocean and Coastal Engineering; (ii) Coastal Processes; (iii) Sediment Transport and Dredging; and (iv) Design of Coastal and Hydraulic Structures. In the process, students will learn to: 

 

• Utilize basic principles of wind and wave generation to understand coastal sediment transport  
• Design gravity dams, spillways, drop structures, stilling basins, sector gates and outfall structures  
• Design levees and analyze slope stability, settlement, and seepage 
• Compute sediment load using principles of sediment transport. 
• Estimate cost for different dredging methods in the context of coastal restoration. 
• Utilize principles of coastal morphodynamics to predict delta evolution, shoreline change, and marsh edge erosion.
