Set yourself only one goal: to succeed in your profession thanks to this TECH degree"

Postgraduate Diploma in Pumping Systems, Water Supply and Sanitation Networks of the Integral Water Cycle.

Pumping systems, supply and sanitation networks of the integral water cycle are the infrastructure and technology necessary for the supply of drinking water and wastewater management in a given region. Pumping systems include equipment and technology designed to transport water from natural water sources, such as rivers, lakes and aquifers, to treatment plants for subsequent distribution through the supply network.

Supply networks are a network of pipes, valves and fittings that transport treated water from treatment plants to homes, businesses and other facilities. These pipe networks also include metering and control devices, such as pressure switches and flow regulating valves, which ensure a constant and regulated supply of water. On the other hand, integrated water cycle sanitation includes the collection, transport, treatment and disposal of wastewater and sewage. Sanitation systems include drains, sewage systems and wastewater treatment plants that are responsible for purifying water for reintroduction into the environment or into irrigation systems.

The pumping systems, supply and sanitation networks of the integral water cycle are fundamental to the supply and management of drinking water and the correct management of wastewater. They are of vital importance to ensure the health and well-being of the population and its environment.

TECH the world's largest digital university has an academic program designed to provide students with the skills and knowledge necessary to understand and design drinking water and wastewater distribution and treatment systems. The program is aimed at civil engineers, environmental engineers, water treatment specialists, technicians and engineers in water utilities, construction companies and government agencies involved in water supply and sanitation.
