Teaching

We eager to pass our experience and knowledge to young students and scholars

The MeteOcean Research group’s teaching approach is characterized by a balance of theory and practical problem solving. Our courses range from basic Fluid Mechanics to Environmental Engineering applications, and cover a wide range of subjects in the field of Environmental Fluid Mechanics, Atmospheric Physics, Coastal and Harbour Engineering, and Coastal Oceanography. Our staff provides a well-rounded education, equipping students with both foundational knowledge and the ability to apply it to real-world problems. This balance sets our teaching activities apart, making MeteOcean Research group a unique and valuable learning opportunity.

Partners

Support from institutional, public, private and industry sector

The research developed in our group is supported by different public and private entities, from European institutions to engineering and consulting companies, as for local institutions such as municipalities and regions. A strong capacity of transferring knowledge and translating a strong theoretical background in practical applications it is the distinguishing mark of our interaction with the public and private funding

Press room

What we do for dissemination and public engagement and what the media and the press are saying about us

We are involved in different activites devoted to the dissemination of our research activities and results to the general public. We strongly believe that public engagement and citizen science can help us a lot in reaching a wide audience to raise awareness about the importance of our research and its applications
