The programme includes water resource management, hydraulic infrastructure, sustainable mobility, hydraulics, airport and railway infrastructure and transport planning, with attention to environmental sustainability, the circular economy and climate change mitigation. The pathway is aimed at those who wish to deepen and update their skills, with a structure that links theoretical reflection to concrete applications in the relevant professional context.

The course lasts two years, full-time and in person in Catania. Access is not limited and no selective entrance test is required.

The aim is to train civil engineers specialised in the hydraulic and transport sectors, for the public and private sectors. Career opportunities include construction companies, design firms, public bodies and service companies. Upon completion, those who successfully finish the pathway obtain the qualification provided and can use the skills acquired in their own professional field or in further study. Concrete prospects nevertheless depend on each participant's starting profile and experience.
