Course

From Clicks to Conversations: How Natural Engineering Language is Transforming Geotechnical Modelling

Hosted by Rocscience at Slope Stability 2026 | Lima, Peru

Date: Sunday, October 25, 2026
Duration: Full day (~8 hours, including lunch)
Language: English
Venue: Lima Convention Center (venue of Slope Stability 2026)

Join Rocscience’s Chief Scientific Officer, Reginald Hammah, and Director at Rocscience Australia, Dr. Alison McQuillan for a first look at Natural Engineering Language (NEL) – a new way to interact with geotechnical models using conversation instead of menus.

In this course, you will:

  • Use NEL modelling in Rocscience’s DIPS and RS2.
  • Apply real workflows where conversation‑based modelling is faster and more intuitive.
  • Understand how MCP bridges LLMs and engineering software without losing control or transparency.
  • See where this is headed: a modelling shift as significant as moving from hand calculations to FEA.

Who should attend: geotechnical engineers, geologists, mining engineers, engineering managers, and anyone curious about AI in engineering practice.
