Abstract

Numerous Spanish and European sylla-bus of civil and mining engineering col-leges lack contents related to volcanic environments, including oceanic islands such as Canary Islands or Azores. Know-ing their particularities and being able to manage them complement the academic training needed to be applied to all types of territory in the current globalized work market. The technical singularities of the hydrology or geotechnics of volcanic en-vironments are complex. Thus, the educational facilities related to them should be as efficient and innovative as possible. It is well known that the knowledge of the singularities of volcanic lands facilitate obtaining a job. Last, but not least, e-learning including virtual laboratories could globalize the training and internationalize the teaching and professional profiles.
