Today, natural water-related risks, such as droughts and floods, are becoming more frequent due to climate change. These extreme events put thousands of human lives at risk each year and directly affect the safety of infrastructure and populations. Due to this, the demand for technical specialists with knowledge in these areas who can contribute to adaptation and mitigation strategies is growing. This course aims to study the variables that govern drought and flood processes and the tools that allow managing both risks. In addition, solutions to reduce flood risk will be analyzed, among which those that are based on nature stand out. At the end of the course, you will be able to: Carry out the evaluation of the water resources of a basin Understand the Special Drought Plans and Flood Risk Management Plans Analyze ecological flows and calculate flood flows Know and design flood risk reduction solutions
Upon completing the Natural Hazards Engineering: Droughts and Floods course, participants can access positions in water management organizations, environmental and natural hazard engineering companies, as well as urban planning entities. They will be trained to evaluate water resources, develop strategies against droughts and floods, and implement innovative engineering solutions to prevent and mitigate these events, contributing to the resilience and sustainability of the environment.
Prepare to address natural risks such as droughts and floods, learning to evaluate water resources, understand risk management plans and apply engineering solutions focused on mitigating impacts.
