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

The Postgraduate diploma in Geotechnical Behavior of Slopes and their Applications 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 diploma, has a syllabus 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, walls, screens, tunnels, etc.

Geotechnical engineering and its application in foundations and structures is present in many civil engineering projects and works. This path, which goes from compaction and seismic considerations in linear works to the execution of tunnels and galleries, is the one that is carried out with the case studies addressed in each of the Postgraduate diploma subjects. It is a priority that these case studies are current and relevant. This allows for an original and application-oriented analysis of the theoretical concepts developed throughout the course.  

Therefore, the Postgraduate diploma in Geotechnical Behavior of Slopes and their Applications integrates the most complete and innovative educational program in the current market in terms of knowledge and latest available technologies, as well as encompassing all the sectors or parties involved in this field. In addition, the Postgraduate diploma consists of exercises based on real cases of situations currently managed or previously faced by the teaching team. 

All this, along a 100% online training that provides the student with the ease of being able to take it wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access, and you will be able to access a universe of knowledge that will be the main asset of the engineer when positioning themselves in a sector that is increasingly in demand by companies in various sectors. 

Apply the latest advances in soil and rock foundations and become a successful engineer"

The Postgraduate diploma in Geotechnical Behavior of Slopes and their Applications contains the scientific most complete and up-to-date educational program on the market. The most important features of the program include: 

• Practical cases presented by experts in Civil Engineering and Geotechnics
