The postgraduate certificate in Hydrogeology Applied to the Ground is academically designed to provide a deep knowledge, starting from advanced concepts already acquired in the world of civil engineering and from a practical application point of view, of the most important geotechnical aspects that can be found in different types of civil works.  

The content ranges from the specific behavior of soils and rocks, with a constant differentiation of both types of terrain throughout all the topics, to their direct application in foundations and structures.  

The postgraduate certificate, has a syllabus that mixes some of them with more applied theoretical load (such as those related to the models of ground behavior, the necessary requirements for a good identification of soils and rocks or the interaction of the ground with seismic disturbances), with others with eminent component of practical analysis, where the knowledge acquired on the behavior of the ground and its stress-strain states of this first part, are applied to the usual structures of Geotechnical Engineering: slopes, walls, walls, screens, tunnels, etc.

The topics covered during this training end with an approach to the statistical calculation and the safety coefficients used in the calculations of these elements in both provisional and definitive stages.  

This postgraduate certificate in Hydrogeology Applied to the Ground integrates the most complete and innovative educational program in the current market in terms of knowledge and latest available technologies, in addition to encompassing all the sectors or parties involved in this field. In addition, the postgraduate certificate consists of exercises based on real cases of situations currently managed or previously faced by the teaching team. 

All this, through a 100% online specialization that provides the student with the ease of being able to take it wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access, and you will be able to access a universe of knowledge that will be the main asset of the engineer when positioning themselves in a sector that is increasingly in demand by companies in various sectors. 

Having an in-depth knowledge of how hydrogeology works is a skill that is in high demand in today's job market"

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

  • The development of practical cases presented in Courses in Civil and Geotechnical Engineering
  • 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

General Objectives

  • Delve deeper into kinds of grounds, not only in their typology but also in their behavior Not only in the evident differentiation of stresses and deformations of soils and rocks, but also under particular but very common conditions, such as the presence of water or seismic disturbances
  • Efficiently recognize the needs for soil characterization, being able to design campaigns with the optimal means for each type of structure, optimizing and giving added value to the study of materials  
  • Identify the behavior of slopes and semi-subterranean structures such as foundations or walls in their different typologies This complete identification must be based on understanding and being able to anticipate the behavior of the terrain, the structure and its interface Know in detail the possible faults that each set can produce and as a consequence have a deep understanding of the repair operations or improvement of materials to mitigate damage  
  • Receive a complete tour of tunnel and gallery excavation methodologies, analyzing all drilling procedures, design constraints, support and lining   

Specific Objectives

  • Identification of the presence of water in the behavior of soils and acquiring a correct knowledge of the different storage functions and characteristic curves 
  • Discuss the terms of effective and total pressures and determine the exact influence of effective and total pressures on the loadings of the land
  • Identify the most common errors regarding the use of these terms of effective and total pressures, and show practical applications of these concepts that are of great importance
  • Apply knowledge of the behavior of semi-saturated soils in data collection and sample analysis, with regard to laboratory tests: drained and undrained tests
  • Determine the uses of soil compaction as a measure to reduce soil saturation Correct handling of the compaction curve by analyzing the most common errors and their applications 
  • Analyze the most common saturation processes such as swelling, suction and liquefaction in soils, describing the characteristics of the processes and their consequences in soils 
  • Apply all these concepts to the modeling of stresses and their variation according to the degree of saturation of the soil
  • Know in detail the applications of saturation in surface works and saturation removal processes in superficial linear works 
  • Correctly define the zonal hydrogeology in a project or work. Determine the concepts that should encompass its study and the consequences it may have in the long term on the structural elements
