A postgraduate certificate created to become the best tool for intervention in Slope Dike Design"

The postgraduate certificate in Slope Dike Design reflects the accumulated design experience of the professors who teach it, and contains the knowledge required for the student to develop in the design and construction of the same.

The postgraduate certificate covers both vertical and slope dikes, design, actions on the dikes, required stability checks, as well as the various construction considerations that the student should be aware of.
 

It also develops the point of scale models of embankment dams and shows a series of examples of constructed dams that will provide the student with a first approach to the design of these.

At the end of the course, the student will have knowledge of the physical marine environment and knowledge of the typologies of external maritime works, the advantages and disadvantages of each type and the construction procedures of maritime works. It will also achieve capacity for the structural design of dikes.
