Syllabus
Course Objectives
Students will acquire good theoretical knowledge on trenchless technologies used for the laying and rehabilitation of belowground network, with focus on aqueducts and sewerage.
The course will also deal with the aims of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals. Some topics and management approaches are consistent with:
Goal 6: Ensure access to water and sanitation for all.
Goal 7: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy.
Goal 8: Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all.
Goal 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation.
Goal 11: Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.
Goal 12: Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns.
Goal 15: Sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, halt and reverse land degradation, halt biodiversity loss.

Course Prerequisites
Theoretical and practical knowledge on the design and the functional diagnosis of hydraulic infrastructures
Teaching Methods
Lectures: 16 hours/year. Practical classes: 22 hours/year.
The frontal lessons are carried out through PowerPoint presentations projected on the screen and using the blackboard for further information.
The practical classes include a technical visit to a construction site to assist in the field application of trenchless technique and technologies for the rehabilitation of an aqueduct or sewer pipeline.
For enrolled students who require inclusive teaching methods, professor will guarantee to two hours of weekly reception online, with time flexibility depending on the needs. The professor will provide video recordings that deal with the course topics and, when possible, will use teaching methods that encourage group activities.

Assessment Methods
Individual oral examination on the topics of the course.
The final assessment will be based on the degree of depth and understanding of the topics presented and on the ability to integrate the knowledge acquired during the course. The assessment will take into account the ability to communicate using an appropriate scientific language.
