Introduction to the Program

With this Postgraduate certificate in Environmental Systems Modeling, you can perfect engineering projects and reach the success you've been looking for”

The effectiveness and usefulness of mathematical models in environmental sciences has made it possible to delimit the area of influence of a project, improve technical decision-making or comply more accurately with current environmental protection regulations. The information extracted from this modeling is therefore of particular relevance for both private and public companies wishing to carry out any project, infrastructure or construction.

In this context, any engineering professional who wishes to progress adequately in their sector must have a solid knowledge of Environmental Systems Modeling, with which they will be able to achieve success in any project they get involved with. This is the reason why TECH has created this Postgraduate certificate, where students will be able to delve into the different types of modeling, their technical applications, validation and sensitivity analysis over 6 weeks.

For this purpose, students will be provided with video summaries, videos in detail, essential readings or case studies with which they will learn from a theoretical-practical view of modeling and simulation of environmental processes. In addition, thanks to the Relearning system, based on the repetition of content, the professional will be able to advance through the syllabus in a much more natural way and even reduce the hours of study that are so frequent in other teaching methods.

The engineer is thus in front of a Postgraduate certificate that will allow them to take firm steps in their professional career, thanks to a degree that they can study comfortably, whenever and wherever they want. All you need is an electronic device with an internet connection to access the syllabus that is hosted on the virtual campus. In addition, you have the freedom to distribute your course load according to your needs, allowing you to easily combine a university program with even the most demanding responsibilities.
