Water Resources
The Water Resources concentration within the Environmental Engineering graduate program offers a diverse area of training. The Water Resources concentration requires the completion of the following core courses:
ENVR 511 Environmental Chemistry
ENVR 512 Environmental Transport and Kinetics
ENVR 513 Environmental Microbiology
ENVR 520 River Mechanics
ENVR 535 Applied Groundwater Hydrology
The area of Environmental and Water Resources graduate research is a scientifically and technically diverse field, which requires multi- or inter-disciplinary training. Other courses that are often used to prepare a student for their research and professional needs, particularly those students pursuing a non-thesis Master degree, may include the following:
ENVR 530 Urban Hyrdology and Storm Water Engineering
ENVR 535 Applied Groundwater Hydrology
ENVR 595 Special Topics (with a Water Resource focus - topics and availability varies each semester)
or co-listed, external departmental courses, such as:
Env 543 Instrumentation and Measurement (same as Biosystems Eng. 543)
Geol 485 Principles of Hydrogeology
Geol 585 Contaminant Hydrogeology
Geog 536 Topics in Watershed Dynamics
This list is not meant to be exhaustive, and all course work should be taken
in consultation with the student’s graduate advisor and graduate committee.
The courses provided herein are primarily for illustrative purposes to highlight
the diverse set of coursework available to a student in the Water Resources
concentration.
