Gain the knowledge you need to manage construction and demolition waste and improve the sustainability of the project you are working on" 

One of the current trends in the sector of construction, in addition to guaranteeing the durability of materials is to have a correct waste management plan. For this reason, the search for alternatives with greater economic, ecological and energy validity has begun. Thus, part of the objective is to reduce the Carbon Footprint associated with construction materials, such as new clinkerization processes, "geopolymers".

Therefore, professionals in the sector must have a certain degree of expertise in this area. Thus, this program will become the right opportunity to achieve this goal and, at the same time, guarantee an improvement in the students' careers.

In this course you will learn about the application and methodologies of Sustainability Indicators, such as the Carbon Footprint and the Life Cycle Analysis of the materials involved in the construction process. During the development of the program, the different types of waste that may be generated during the execution of construction and demolition works will be classified and identified, promoting their management from the source. The possible options for the treatment of these wastes will be assessed according to their nature and origin and the valuation that such management entails. As an expert in construction materials, it is essential to focus on the correct management of the process from the beginning to the end of the service life of construction and demolition waste.

It will provide new knowledge for the analysis of the environmental management of building and demolition processes, and the methodology for the treatment of demolition and construction waste. For this reason, we have an excellent teaching staff that offers students their extensive experience in this sector that is highly-demanded on an international level.

With a 100% online Postgraduate Certificate students will be able to study comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the engineer in a highly demanded sector.
