The Department of Land and Water Resources Management offers courses in hydrology, hydropedology, hydrometeorology, irrigation and drainage, river channel engineering and restoration of rivers, soil erosion and land protection, ponds and small dams, GIS and CAD applications in water resources, and water resources management.
Research priorities include the study of the effects of man-made changes in river beds on the hydrological regime of rivers, ecologically sound river conservation methods for the protection of biological processes in rivers, guidelines for restoring rivers, design and reconstruction methods for small reservoirs, computation of design discharges in small mountain basins, application of GIS technologies for land protection and sediment yield computation, and climate change impact studies.
