Nowadays, limited resources are one of the major concerns for industries and citizens themselves as consumers. For this reason, new alternatives have emerged for cases such as lack of soil, which are solved with engineering and result in vertical agriculture. This and other advances have been possible thanks to studies in the agricultural and food industry. Aware of the active participation of this production in the economic activity as a whole, the business industry has turned to research.

This is a sector that has shown great growth in recent years and with which professionals have found solutions to environmental, production and food problems. The strong interrelationship between the food industry and other sectors makes it essential to adapt this field to future sustainable trends. This is why the wine industry has sought ways to automate its processes to speed up time-consuming production through traditional winemaking. This is precisely where the engineers and their skills at Idiogram Technologies come in, developing packaging that is more respectful of the natural environment and even innovative tools such as sono-densitometry, which makes it possible to monitor wine fermentation from inside the barrels.

Given the strong demand for highly qualified professionals in agricultural and food technology, TECH has developed a qualification that addresses aspects such as thermodynamics, fermentation processes, aging, among others. This is a 100% online program with which students will acquire extensive knowledge about the analytical techniques of wine parameters and the handling of winery machinery, from anywhere in the world. A unique experience, with experts in Enology to teach the entire syllabus to the specialists. In addition, they will be provided with theoretical and practical materials during the 12 months of qualification, so that, after completing the study, they will master all the techniques of stabilization and clarification of wines and can enter the exciting world of winemaking.

Drive your career towards new technologies in agricultural wine production and preservation to streamline your organization's service and maximize your profits"
