About this programme

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 main topics: Groundwater Resources Management and Geohydrology Hydraulic Engineering and River Basin Management Sanitary Engineering and Water Quality Management Stochastic Simulation and Safety Research for Hydrosystems Furthermore, the programme profits from the university's excellent research facilities in the water sector, such as the Research Facility for Subsurface Remediation (VEGAS) – the only one of its kind in Germany – or the Hydraulic Laboratory (VA) with a floor of 1,600 m² 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 Büsnau is affiliated with the Institute for Sanitary Engineering, Water Quality and Solid Waste Management (ISWA). The programme
