  • Studiare a Reggio Calabria

    Studiare il mare nell’Università Mediterranea di Reggio Calabria. Puoi farlo iscrivendoti al corso di “Ingegneria Civile e Ambientale per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile”.

    Con il nuovo ordinamento, attivato nell’anno accademico 2020/2021 lo  studente può personalizzare il percorso secondo le proprie inclinazioni sia orientandosi verso un percorso curriculare, sia attraverso le Attività a libera scelta.

    Lo studente potrà optare per uno tre curricula proposti:

    • “Opere civili sostenibili e per l’energia”,
    • “Infrastrutture di trasporto e logistica”,
    • “Tutela dell’ambiente”.

    Per informazioni puoi contattare direttamente il Coordinatore del Corso di Studi, prof. Felice Arena (telefono o whatsapp: 3355387968; email: arena@unirc.it  )

About Us

The Natural Ocean Engineering Laboratory (NOEL) of the Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Italy, is the first ocean engineering laboratory working in the field. A peculiarity of the lab is that a local wind from NNW often generates sea states consisting of pure wind waves that represent a small scale model, in Froude similarity, of ocean storms.
Significant wave height ranges between 0.20 m and 0.80 m, with peak periods between 2.0 s and 3.6 s. This local wind is very stable and sometimes stays steady from morning to evening. The tidal amplitude is very small (typically within 0.10m). The physical structure was built after the successful experience of some initial small-scale field experiments directed by Professor Paolo Boccotti since 1989.
