Master in Ingegneria Ambientale - Curriculum in Reach: Resilienza agli Effetti dei Cambiamenti Climatici

The Master's Degree in Environmental Engineering - Curriculum in Reach: Resilience to Climate Change Effects is an English-taught 2-year master's degree program .

This program aims at training expert professionals capable of operating in a reality where climate changes increasingly impact the management of water resources, the safeguarding of the environment, and soil protection.

The environmental engineers graduating in this curriculum will be able to analyze problems, build models to support decisions, plan and design actions and operations of natural and territorial interest to mitigate the effects of climate changes, as well as in ordinary contexts, using modern, innovative and inter-disciplinary approaches, techniques and tools.

Starting from a reinforcement of previous bases in mathematics, hydraulics, sanitary engineering, applied geology, and hydraulic constructions, in this curriculum the topics related to climate dynamics, the impact of climate changes on aquatic ecosystems, the sustainable use of water resources in urban and agricultural environments, fluvial hydraulics and related hydraulic protection works and the use of satellite data are especially developed.

The University of Pavia. Advancing Knowledge since 1361

The University of Pavia is one of the world’s oldest Academic Institutions . It was founded in 825 as a “School of law, rhetoric and liberal arts” by King Lothair I, and in 1361 it was officially established as a “Universitas Studiorum” by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV. Thanks to the reforms implemented during the 18th century by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria and her son Joseph II, the University of Pavia became one of the foremost in Europe, boasting an impressive number of famous Alumni, celebrated Academicians and Nobel Prizes .

Nowadays the University of Pavia is an Internationalisation-driven University which participates in agreements with worldwide esteemed institutions, an advanced Research University which promotes innovative interdisciplinary projects, and a Job-oriented University which creates powerful networks and strong business chances.
