Speciality description:

The Bachelor'sdegree in Hydraulicsis part of the training pathway for studentscomingfrom the first year of the commoncore "Science and Technology." Its main objective is to train mid-levelprofessionalsequippedwithstrongscientific and technicalskills in the field of hydraulics, both at the fundamental and appliedlevels.

The program aims to providestudentswithgeneral and specializedknowledgecovering the main areas of hydraulics, including free-surface and pressurizedhydraulics, urbanhydraulics, hydraulic structures, water resource management, and pumpingsystems. Special attention isgiven to mastering modeling, calculation, and sizingtoolsused in hydraulics professions.

Uponcompletion of the program, graduateswillbe able to effectivelycontribute to the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of hydraulic structures and networks. Theywillalsobeprepared to joinmultidisciplinary teams in varioussectors.

Careeropportunities cover a wide range of organizations: public works and construction companies (drinking water networks, sanitation networks, pumping stations, dams, and otherhydraulic structures), technical consulting firms, administrations and public institutions in charge of water management, as well as specialized national and regionallaboratories.

Finally, thisBachelor'sdegreeprovides a solidfoundation for pursuinghighereducation, particularlyMaster's or Doctoral studies in hydraulics, environmental sciences, or water resource management.
