Courses

Flow monitoring technology in water engineering

This course aims to provide theoretical fundamentals in flow measurement science, and advanced knowledge regarding measurement methods, tools and instrumentation applied to experimental hydraulics, industrial and environmental flows and water engineering applications.

Water resources mangagement

Water is one of the fundamental earth resources that sustains all life forms. Despite being abundant as chemical compound, its accessibility and use depend on its physical status and quality. The analysis of resources availability, user needs and optimal allocation will be taught and discussed.

Irrigation and drainage engineering

The course aims at teaching the fundamentals of both irrigation and drainage techniques with particular attention to the soil water balance and related management, the materials, the construction methods as well as the environmental impacts and sustainability criteria of both practices.
