Objetivos

The course of Urban Waterworks aims the design, analysis, monitoring, evaluation and rehabilitation of urban hydraulic structures. Advanced knowledge in the fields of integration of the source control solutions, LIDs (Low Impact Developments) and flood management, prevention and mitigation of urban flooding will also be transmitted to students, thus conferring engineering expertise in the field of urban flooding.

Resultados de aprendizagem e competências

This course aims to ensure that future professionals are deeply knowledgeable of the issues discussed during the semester. These professionals should be able to solve the challenges of this area of expertise in a structured and rigorous way and address civil engineering problems in a multidisciplinary perspective, well-framed in scientific-technical, economic, social and environmental contexts. They should be able to communicate rationally the results of their work to the technical community and society in general, enhance leadership skills, entrepreneurship and team work, taking into account the different economic and international competitiveness contexts.

The syllabus, focusing on different types of works and hydraulic structures in urban environments (e.g., water supply and sanitation networks, culverts), helps to achieve the learning objectives of the course. A strong component of the syllabus is cantered on the problem of urban flooding, which includes aspects from conception of engineering solutions to the evaluation of the solutions already implemented, this meeting the objectives of the course in this subject.

The syllabus forms a coherent whole because they allow framing, from the perspective of the civil engineer, the different aspects of the urban water cycle which are particularly relevant to the profession.
