Natural Risk Engineering Course Drought and Floods

Faced with extreme climatic events, this course in natural risk engineering focuses on a deep understanding of droughts and floods, phenomena that challenge our resilience. Covering from the evaluation of water resources to the management of natural risk, taught by experts in the field. At the end, you will have a solid basis to understand the special drought and flood risk management plans, contributing to vital strategies for water security and communities protection. Transform your curiosity into applicable knowledge and contributes to mold a safer future against the adversity of the climate.

Currently, natural risks related to water, such as droughts and floods, are increasingly frequent due to climate change. These extreme events put thousands of human lives at risk every year and directly affect the security of infrastructure and populations. Because of this, the demand for technical specialists with knowledge in these areas that can contribute to adaptation and mitigation strategies grows. This course aims to study the variables that govern drought and flood processes and the tools that allow managing both risks. In addition, flood risk reduction solutions will be analyzed, including those based on nature. At the end of the course, you will be able to: Perform the evaluation of the water resources of a basin Understand the special drought plans and flood risk management plans analyze ecological flows and calculate avenue flows to know and design flood risk reduction solutions

When completing the natural risk engineering course: droughts and floods, participants can access positions in water management organizations, environmental engineering companies and natural risk, 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.

Aimed at professionals in areas of engineering, urban planning and environmental management. They will learn to evaluate water resources, understand plans for droughts and floods, and explore engineering solutions for the management of these natural risks. Ideal for those who seek to contribute in adaptation and mitigation of hydrological disasters.
