Water Resources Engineering and Management (WAREM)

About

The continuously increasing water needs of a growing world population are having a progressively adverse impact upon the Earth and its natural water resources. Sustainable water resources development within environmental and social limitations requires both qualified engineers and scientists as well as global scientific and professional cooperation. WAREM's internationally recognised Master of Science programme was specifically developed to satisfy these demands, taking into account international concerns regarding climatic, demographic and politically influential constraints and changes. The courses offered allow students to acquire interdisciplinary knowledge in the following three main topics: Groundwater Resources Management and Geohydrology Hydraulic Engineering and River Basin Management Sanitary Engineering and Water Quality Management Furthermore, the programme profits from the university's excellent research facilities in the water sector, such as the Research Facility for Subsurface Remediation (VEGAS) â€“ the only one of its kind in Germany â€“ or the Hydraulic Laboratory (VA) with a floor of 1,600 mÂ² that allows the construction of physical model experiments on topics related to hydraulic engineering and water resources management. The Teaching and Research Sewage Treatment Plant (LFKW) in BÃ¼snau is affiliated with the Institute for Sanitary Engineering, Water Quality and Solid Waste Management (ISWA). The programme offers engaging excursions to hydropower plants, pumping stations, river management sites and other relevant water resources sites in Germany and the neighbouring countries. These excursions include opportunities to hike and sightsee in nearby cultural centres. WAREM maintains close cooperation with a number of national and international companies and research institutes worldwide.
