Introduction to the Program

Gain in-depth knowledge of the different electromechanical and traffic installations in tunnels, their function, operation and the importance of preventive and corrective maintenance”

In the first block of this high-level program, the specific topics of operation in the conventional sense of the term are discussed. The concepts of use and defense will be addressed, followed by the subject of authorizations and files, to give way then to the chapter on traffic studies, as an essential part of the use that roads have and that both in the planning phase and in the maintenance or subsequent modifications throughout the life of a road are essential data for the design of the works. This first section ends with a unit related to road safety, which also includes road safety audits. 

Then there is a second section that covers units that are the subject of specific systematization and that in recent years have allowed road engineers to become more professional in their field. This block begins with a first unit that deals with the main management systems regulated by ISO standards, which provide extra competitiveness to companies that decide to implement them. 

A significant case in point is the issue of winter maintenance, which, although it can be extremely sensitive to latitude or other conditioning factors in which the infrastructure is framed, it is evident that it becomes more important with the passage of time due to its direct relationship with the availability of the road and the ever-increasing demands of users. 

In this section, four units that are historically associated mainly, but not exclusively, with tunnels are discussed. This is how the control center is treated from the operating point of view, followed by the operating manual. Later on, and this is something that the student will hardly find in other studies of this nature, at least to date, a topic related to minimum operating conditions is included. This issue is of extraordinary importance to regulate, with the knowledge of all interested parties, those degraded situations in which exploitation can continue, as well as the application of compensatory measures when these are possible. 

And to finish the block, and the Postgraduate certificate, a unit related to the tunnel operator is included. These are very specific figures, to which the regulations have been devoting special attention and which are addressed here from the experience of years of management, which will provide the student with specific skills in the field.

As it is a 100% online Postgraduate certificate, it provides the student with the ease of being able to take it comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in accordance with the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a highly demanded area such as road construction.
