ater Engineering and Management (WEM) program imparts education and training toward an understanding and solving the complexity of water resources development and management problems in the context of global drivers of change. It offers a balanced curriculum, which covers both the engineering and management aspects of water resource development and management. Students are trained to acquire knowledge and skills in tools and techniques to come up with viable and sustainable solutions within the framework of the integrated water resources management at the river basin scale. Water Engineering and Management program covers five major areas – Agricultural Water, Coastal Water, Urban Water, Water Resources, and Climate Change, Extreme Events and Risk Management.
