Welcome to UNSAT 2027

The 9th International Conference on Unsaturated Soils (UNSAT 2027) will take place in Greater Boston Area, Massachusetts, USA, from June 6 to 9, 2027, at the Joyce Cummings Center (JCC), Tufts University. The conference will bring together researchers, practitioners, decision makers, and students from around the world to exchange ideas on advances in theory, experiments, and applications in unsaturated soils across scales and disciplines.

UNSAT 2027 will feature plenary and keynote lectures, invited sessions, and peer-reviewed technical papers, covering both fundamental research and engineering applications, and providing a platform for collaboration and meaningful scientific discussion among the unsaturated soils community.

Continuing the tradition of previous UNSAT conferences, UNSAT 2027 will offer a stimulating academic environment for the exchange of ideas. The 9th edition follows the successful series of UNSAT conferences previously held in Milos (2023), Hong Kong (2018), Sydney (2014), Barcelona (2010), Phoenix (2006), Recife (2002), Beijing (1998), and Paris (1995). We look forward to welcoming you to Boston.
