Learn about the process of digital transformation and technology that has been developed in the railway sector in recent years following a program focused on engineering professionals" 

Throughout its history, the railroad has not changed significantly from a conceptual point of view. Thus, for example, the interaction between the wheel and the rail continues to be one of the main technical bases of the system, and although there have been significant advances in this area, they are still based on original principles. Even so, in terms of organizational development over the last few years, it is necessary to analyze it in the current context.

This is in addition to the new trends set in motion by the various players in the sector, which form the basis of the new sector strategies to be followed by the world's railroads. In this way, this Postgraduate diploma includes an in-depth analysis of the main technical and operational areas of the system, both at the level of the infrastructure, the rail vehicle and the interaction between the two. Its position in relation to other modes of transport is also considered in this module in order to identify its competitive advantages and factors to be improved.

It is also important to address the study of the different activities associated with incident management in railroad operations, which raises the type of measures that need to be implemented in the event of an accident, human failure or any other incident that disrupts rail traffic. This is complemented by a specific study of safety and civil protection in the railroad system as a whole. It is worth mentioning that all the issues associated with energy consumption in the operation of the different services will also be taken into consideration. This has been a very topical issue in the railway sector, particularly with regard to companies' business strategy, since it must be taken into account that the cost of this energy is one of the most important for them.

At the end of the program, the student will be able to address the digital transformation process that is happening in the sector, in the same way that has occurred in other industrial sectors. Traditionally, railroads have been digital in the field of control, command and signaling and rolling stock, but not in other areas, such as energy, infrastructure, freight, etc., which are now the targets of this new transformation.

The experience of the teaching staff in the field of railroads, in different areas and approaches such as administration, industry and the engineering company, has made it possible to develop this practical and complete content oriented to the new challenges and needs of the sector. Unlike other programs in the market, the approach is international and not only oriented to one type of country and/or system.
