Learn the latest advances in the digital transformation of railway systems directly from a group of highly-qualified experts”

Changes in the sector are causing the different companies and organizations that make up the industry to demand these new technical requirements from their professionals. This includes knowing all the improvements that the digital transformation process has meant for the railway sector. The development of these new tools today makes it possible to know the behavior of the entire railway system in real time, as well as the speeds at which trains move. This also represents a benefit, considering the ease with which we can obtain large amounts of data that can determine the behavior of the trains and then analyze them and perform a descriptive analysis.

In line with the above, this Postgraduate certificate in New Digital Revolution in Railway Systems addresses the digital transformation that the sector is undergoing and how it has happened in other industrial sectors. Traditionally, railroads have been digital in the field of control, command and signaling and rolling stock, but not in other areas, such as energy, infrastructure, freight, etc., which are now the targets of this new transformation. This program analyzes all these new transformations and topics of great strategic interest in the current moment.

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 program 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.
