Speciality description:

The Master'sdegree in Urban Hydraulicsis a continuation of the Bachelor's training in Hydraulics, Civil Engineering, or relatedfields. Its objective is to train specializedprofessionals capable of addressing the technical and environmental challenges related to water management in urban areas.

This Master's program aims to deepentheoretical and appliedknowledge in the fields of urbanhydraulics, with a particular focus on the design, sizing, operation, and rehabilitation of drinking water supply networks, sanitation networks, regulatory structures, pumping stations, treatment, and storagefacilities. It alsoaddresses aspects related to integratedstormwater management, the resilience of hydraulic infrastructure to climate change, and the use of digital simulation and modeling tools.

The training combines fundamental courses, case studies, tutorials, technicalprojects, and internships in professional or laboratory settings to developstudents’ scientific, technical, and methodologicalskills.

Graduates of the Master's in Urban Hydraulics can enter the job market in consulting firms, construction or network management companies, local authorities, hydraulic offices, water agencies, or research and development institutions. Theymayalsopursue doctoral studies for careers in research or highereducation.

This Master's program thusmeets a growingdemand for qualifiedprofessionals in the water sector, especially in the context of increasingurbanization, pressure on water resources, and the evolving standards and technologies related to urbanhydraulic infrastructure.
