In a context of increasing social pressure on water resources, it is of vital importance to train experts in hydraulic engineering and the environment from both a professional and a research point of view. On the other hand, European regulations (Water Framework Directive, 2000) imply the need to train professionals from a multidisciplinary perspective, similar to that taught in this Master's degree.
This Master is linked to the official postgraduate program with a doctorate in Water and Environmental Engineering, distinguished with a Quality Mention awarded by the Ministry of Education (MCD2006-00408).
