Taught by the School of Experimental Sciences and Technology (ESCET), this new degree It will allow students to know the physical, chemical, geological and biological principles that govern the flows of matter and energy in the hydrological cycle, as the university has highlighted in a note.

Students will also be able to acquire the necessary skills for field and laboratory work, the application of basic analytical techniques in the study of the characteristics of water and the hydric environment, and to evaluate the demands and availability of water resources based on the different uses. 

In addition, from a multidisciplinary approach, they will learn the main technologies of treatment, purification and regeneration of water and will acquire the ability to propose protection and recovery measures for the masses of the resource. 

This transversal training is necessary to reduce the impact caused by floods, eliminate the overexploitation of aquifers, reverse the desiccation of wetlands or promote actions against saline intrusion in coastal areas.
