Course description

To conceive soils and rocks as porous media governed by Solid and Fluid Mechanics. To formulate and implement Finite Element and Finite Differences numerical models with the objective to analyze the processes that govern ground response, to interpret field information and to predict soil response. To analyze, discriminate and integrate geological and geotechnical information in studies and projects. To calculate, evaluate, plan and regulate surface and groundwater resources.(Specific competence of the specialization in Groundwater Hydrology). To assess and manage environmental impacts from waste disposal, soil contamination and groundwater pollution. (Specific competence of the specialization in Groundwater Hydrology). To design and execute hydraulic systems, including transportation facilities, distribution and storage of solids, liquids and gases, water treatment plants and waste management (urban, industrial or hazardous). (Specific competence of the specialization in Groundwater Hydrology). To assess and manage projects, plants and water facilities for the environmental point of view. (Specific competence of the specialization in Groundwater Hydrology). To model, assess and manage geological resources, including mineral and thermal groundwater. (Specific competence of the specialization in Groundwater Hydrology).
