    Integrated Water Resources Management (MSc Joint Exchange Programme with Focus on the Middle East and Northern Africa Region)

    About

    The Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) MSc programme focuses on water resources management in the context of water scarcity in the (Middle East and North Africa) MENA region. Within the MSc, IWRM students get acquainted with water management related topics from an interdisciplinary perspective. They acquire the knowledge to learn different water-related disciplines such as flood risk, hydrology, river engineering, sanitation and public health, watershed management, water supply and demand, water system analysis, water governance, social-economical aspects, and more. The programme trains participants in practices of project funding and international cooperation. Students get the chance to put their learned knowledge in action during three project modules. Up-to-date concepts and solutions are presented during field visits to relevant projects, institutions, and conferences. Throughout their studies, participants receive first-hand support from high-level professionals and entrepreneurs from the MENA region and German water sectors. The social component is equally important and aims at equipping participants with the communicative, intercultural, and managerial skills necessary to take up leadership positions in the water sector and to work effectively within the framework of international cooperation. The Master's thesis is completed in the framework of a water-related research project of the Institute for Technology and Resources Management in the Tropics and Subtropics (ITT), German Jordanian University (GJU) or with a partner institution from the MENA region.
