Introduction to the Program

Geotechnical slope projects are on the rise, and acquiring the skills to operate successfully in this sector is a highly disruptive skill in an ever-growing industry"

##IMAGE##

The Postgraduate certificate in Slope Analysis and Stability is academically designed to provide in-depth knowledge, based on advanced concepts already acquired in the world of civil engineering and from a practical application point of view, of the most important geotechnical aspects that can be found in different types of civil works.  

The content ranges from the specific behavior of soils and rocks, with a constant differentiation of both types of terrain throughout all the Topics, to their direct application in foundations and structures.

The Postgraduate certificate, has a thematic that mixes some of them with more applied theoretical load (such as those related to the models of ground behavior, the necessary requirements for a good identification of soils and rocks or the interaction of the ground with seismic disturbances), with others with eminent component of practical analysis, where the knowledge acquired on the behavior of the ground and its stress-strain states of this first part, are applied to the usual structures of geotechnical engineering: slopes, walls, screens, tunnels... 

The Postgraduate certificate, besides standing out the differences in the behavior of slopes in rocks and soils, analyzes the different elements that influence their behavior, the treatment of geological data to be obtained and observes the necessary analyses for a correct knowledge of the components and behavior of slopes.  

But beyond simple modeling, slopes have a series of associated processes, such as their protection as temporary or long-term works and their most common practical uses, which will be the subject of the topics of this module.  

In short, the Postgraduate certificate in Slope Analysis and Stability integrates the most complete and innovative educational program in the current market in terms of knowledge and latest available technologies, in addition to encompassing all the sectors or parties involved in this field. The program is also made up of exercises based on real cases of situations currently managed or previously faced by the teaching team. 

All this, throughout a 100% online training that provides the student with the ease of being able to take it wherever and whenever they want. You will only need a device with internet access, and you will be able to access a universe of knowledge that will be the main basis for engineers to position themselves in a sector that is increasingly demanded by companies in various sectors.

Postgraduate Certificate in Slope Analysis and Stability

In engineering, planning is everything. Any detail left out, no matter how minor it may seem, can lead to economic and structural detriment at best, and increased risk to human lives at worst. The detailing and/or updating of geotechnical and topographic elements is a notorious advantage when planning a work, therefore, TECH Global University presents its Postgraduate Certificate in Slope Analysis and Stability, an opportunity addressed to all engineering personnel to work in the scrutiny of soils and terrains where there is a slope. The program will be completely online, so you will have free time, self-regulation in the intensity of classes and you can even combine these studies with other activities of a personal nature. If you want to position yourself successfully in a wide demand labor sector such as construction, here we give you a solid and visionary bases that will make you make a difference among the rest.

Dare to learn more about slopes

Seismic and geological disturbances, terrain behavior or even the proper identification of soils and rocks play a fundamental role when placing a civil engineering work or similar. These components, of course, are not independent of the formation of slopes, but are intrinsically interpenetrated with them. In cases such as dams and earth channels or road embankments, the stability of the slope is basically an extension of the foundations themselves that ensures the safety of the structure. Do you know how to acquire expertise for an optimal analysis of these elements? With our Postgraduate Certificate, a very complete tour through fourteen theoretical items where you will learn about: slope equilibrium and calculation, factors that influence stability, breaks and discontinuities, dikes in maritime works, simulation and comparative software, among many others that will increase the professionalism status in the execution of your work. Do not hesitate, join the largest online engineering school in the world.
