Field of Structural Engineering
Structural engineering deals with the stability of constructions. This field aims to ensure the safety, performance and durability of structures such as buildings, engineering structures or underground constructions.
Geotechnical field
Geotechnics deals with the development, operation and preservation of the underground environment. This field aims to ensure the safety, performance and durability of underground foundations and constructions such as tunnels and water or energy collection structures, as well as the prevention of environmental risks (e.g. landslides, settlement, melting permafrost) that may affect these underground structures.
Transport and Mobility
Transport and Mobility deals with all the mechanisms and methods of transport that allow the movement of goods or people, as well as the infrastructures and systems that allow such movements. This field aims to ensure the safety, performance and sustainability of transport systems and their technological development.
Water and Energy
Hydraulics and Energy deals with all hydraulic systems for the production and use of energy. This field aims to ensure the safety, performance and sustainability of energy production and supply infrastructures and the systems regulating their distribution and use.
Engineering of the built environment
The engineering of the built environment deals with all the physical, chemical or biological mechanisms acting on the built environment. This field aims to ensure the safety, performance, comfort and durability of the various building control systems with an emphasis on thermal aspects.
