Description

Know, from a constructive point of view, the importance of civil infrastructure in the correct operation of the railroad system" 

##IMAGE##

 

The railroad needs a specific civil infrastructure due to the technical requirements that are necessary for a correct interaction with the rolling stock. In this sense, the analysis of the dynamics of the train itself with the infrastructure is particularly relevant. The railroad platform, as well as the bridges, viaducts and tunnels used, although they are similar from a constructive point of view to those used in other areas, have specific particularities for case of the railroad due to this interaction.

Based on the above, the postgraduate certificate in Civil Railroad Infrastructure will address the technical analysis of all these elements, taking into account their characteristics, components and specificities considering such interaction. As it is to be expected, the study of the railroad track in its traditional conception, with ballast, and in slab, as well as the devices used for its operation, such as turnouts, are also covered here.

It should be noted that this program will also incorporate the analysis of the so-called infrastructure resilience. This is a discipline that has gained great importance in recent years and that studies the impact of different aspects, such as climate change, on the infrastructure itself.

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.

A 100% online postgraduate certificate that provides the student with the ease of being able to study 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 according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the engineer in a highly demanded sector. 

With the graphic and practical content, this postgraduate certificate provides students with all the knowledge they need in their daily working day" 

This postgraduate certificate in Civil Railroad Infrastructure is the most comprehensive and up-to-date educational program on the market. The most important features of the program include: 

  • Improve professional skills in the field of railroad systems
  • Update and focus the student's company's strategies in these terms
  • Demand new requirements in the technology acquisition processes
  • Add value to the technical projects to be developed by student's companies and organizations
  • The graphic, schematic, and eminently practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
  • Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
  • Special emphasis on innovative methodologies
  • Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
  • Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection 

Enhance your professional experience by knowing the complex dynamics of the train with the infrastructure and the particularities that they have"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this training program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training programmed to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. For this purpose, the professional will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.
