This will enable them to meet the increasing societal demands for energy and environmental sustainability. I am passionate about nurturing their capabilities and enthusiasm for advancing fundamental knowledge in geomechanics. I am keen on teaching both fundamental and applied courses in areas such as rock and soil mechanics, solid mechanics, finite element method, and elasticity and inelasticity. I also aim to offer general courses in geotechnical engineering to cultivate the upcoming generation of leaders in the field of geomechanics. + + +I have been teaching and giving lectures on (1) [Analytical and Numerical Methods in Geotechnical Engineering](https://www.polyu.edu.hk/cee/docdrive/CSE583_as%20of%2020230818.pdf){:target="_blank"} for Semester Two of 2022/23 and 2023/24; (2) CE620 Research Methods for Semester One of 2023/24 at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
