Description

This postgraduate diploma will allow you to advance in your professional career and you will be able to get into biodiversity conservation from the engineering point of view” 

##IMAGE##

The approach of engineering to nature has made the professionals themselves more aware of the impact of their projects on the environment, and they also contribute with their technical knowledge to the recovery of certain polluted ecosystems, the reduction of polluting gas emissions or the adequate management of waste. This change has been possible thanks to greater environmental education and a change in society's own mentality. 

The adoption of policies for the protection of species and the promotion of science and technology to favor the conservation of fauna and flora have also played a key role in this transformation. In this scenario, the profile of engineering professionals has undergone changes and they are capable of becoming key agents of the sustainable and efficient development that society and companies demand. That is why TECHoffers professionals a university education that delves into Conservation Ecology through multimedia didactic resources that can be accessed at any time of the day from an electronic device with an internet connection.  

Therefore, graduates will be able to delve into the conservation of biodiversity, biological systems, energy flows, strategic plans on biological diversity or the management carried out through natural parks for the protection of fauna and flora. Furthermore, students are provided with case studies that will help them to acquire learning that will be of great practical use in their professional performance.

All this, in a 100% online university education format, which does not have classes with fixed schedules, and whose teaching load can be distributed by the students according to their needs. An ideal educational option for people who wish to combine their work and/or personal responsibilities with a postgraduate diploma that is at the forefront of the academic world. 

You will acquire knowledge that will allow you to grow in projects that seek to improve the protection of endangered animals through engineering”
