The Master’s programme (second cycle – 120 ECTS) in Environmental and Sustainable
Building Engineering, held in Rieti, is aimed at training an engineer aware of the goals of the
Agenda for Sustainable Development released by United Nations, with a specific relationship
to building engineering, such as:
• developing quality, reliable, sustainable and resilient buildings and environment;
• upgrading and retrofitting industries to make them sustainable;
• facilitating sustainable and resilient city and territory development;
• reducing the number of deaths and the number of people affected by disasters,
including water related disasters, water resources lack and seismic related ones, with
a focus on protecting the poor people in vulnerable situations, due to, also,
groundwater resources supply scarcity;
• reducing the adverse pro capita environmental impact of cities, also by paying special
attention to air quality and water, wastewater and solid waste management.
