An educational itinerary in 100% online modality where you will update your competences on the design and development of Advanced MCIA"

Pulsed combustion engines, or PCCIs, stand out in the automotive field for their ability to combine other systems such as spark and compression ignition. Their uses have been extended mainly to the transportation sector as they allow greater efficiency in fuel consumption and reduce polluting emissions. At the same time they extend to power generation systems that already offer improved performance over traditional engines.

This type of propellant is just one example of the constant transformations that are taking place in the field of Alternative Combustion Engine development. A very complex field that requires the most up-to-date technologies and the professional practice of duly trained experts. However, syllabuses that delve into these issues in a comprehensive way are not abundant and engineers face serious difficulties in updating their skills.

For this reason, TECH has created this Postgraduate certificate where students will analyze the characteristics and operation of compound duty cycle engines, Atkinson-Miller cycle, among others. In turn, they will delve into the integration of modalities and the search for better applications to impact machinery efficiency and performance.

In addition, this TECH educational pathway implements the innovative Relearning teaching method. In this way, graduates will acquire practical skills in a fast and flexible manner. In addition, the university program will have a 100% online mode of study, without hermetic schedules or rigid evaluation systems. For this reason, each participant will be able to choose when and where access the contents, being able to personalize their learning. All of this with the teaching guidance of a faculty made up of the best experts.
