Profile
The study program “Water Management and Environmental Engineering” provides knowledge and skills to recognize the environmental and social aspects related to water, to understand the processes of water transport in the environment and its linkages to the environmental systems. Furthermore the technical background for design and development of technical solutions for water supply, purification and sectoral demands is gained. Water related risks like floods and droughts as well as risks related to alpine hazard processes like landslides, avalanches or rockfall are addressed and knowledge for their recognition, prevention and recovery is imparted. . .The master program offers the choice of a specialization among the water management / engineering branch and mountain risk engineering.The former comprises the field of sanitary engineering, rural water management, hydrology and water management, hydraulic engineering, aquatic ecology, wetland management and waste management. The latter includes mountain hazard processes and related mitigation measures as well as an introduction to integral risk management. Additionally economy and law with some special focus on policies in developing countries are included in the program.The aim of the curriculum is the education and training of engineering experts with excellent skills in technical planning and a solid understanding of environmental processes with consideration of the interaction between water, soil and atmosphere. The gained knowledge will enable the graduates to develop and enhance the social and environmental well-being of human society by means of sound and sustainable technologies in the water sector.
