About

Water is the most important resource in India, given India is still an agrarian nation and most industries need water. India is the highest extractor of groundwater in the world and it is necessary to understand water resource issues and concerns so that water resources management activities can be scientifically formulated and validated. A focused course on water management is necessary to sensitize the students on the actual issues and how to manage, adapt and mitigate. In addition, good water management is key for attaining sustainable development goals, protecting a country against climate change extremes and for promoting industrial growth in India.

INTENDED AUDIENCE : Students in Civil Engineering, Rural Development, Earth Science, Geology and Rural development departments
