1. WATER RESOURCES PROFILE OF ETHIOPIA
Ethiopia is endowed with a substantial amount of water resources. The surface water resource potential is huge. As a matter of this fact, it
is called the “water tower” of North-east Africa. There are 12 major river/drainage basins many of which are trans-boundary. The total
annual runoff from these basins is estimated at about 111 billion cubic meters. The major rivers carry water and valuable soil and drain
mainly to the arid regions of neighboring countries. The Wabi Shebelle and Genale drain to the desert areas of Somalia and flow into the
Indian Ocean. Abay (Blue Nile), Tekeze-Angereb (Atbara) and Baro drain to the Sudan (and Egypt) and join the Mediterranean Sea
through the Nile. The total loss of top soil, along with those trans-boundary rivers, in Ethiopia has been estimated at 3 billion tons per
year.
There are also eleven major lakes with a total area of 750,000 ha. The biggest is Lake Tana found in the Northwestern part of the country
while the rest of the lakes are found in the Rift Valley. The ground water and the gross Hydro-Electric potential in the country are
estimated at 2.6 billion cubic meters and 160,000 Giga Watt per Hours (GWh) per year respectively. Based on available information the
potential irrigable land in the country is about 3.7 million ha.
Although Ethiopia’s water resource is large, very little of it has been developed for agriculture, hydropower, industry, water supply and
other purposes. Basin wide integrated master plan studies, which envisage a development activity over the coming 30 to 50 years has been
undertaken for most of the major rivers. Recent estimates indicate that the total irrigated area in Ethiopia is 197,225 ha (MoWE, 2002).
National coverage of potable water supply has increased from 19% in 1990 to 68.5% in 2009/10. It is particularly encouraging to note that
the proportion in rural areas with access to clean water has significantly increased from 35% in 2004/05 to 65.8% in 2009/10, compared to
increases from 80% to 91.5% in urban areas for the same period(MoFED, 2010). Those improvements has brought by the ability of the
country to produce and mobilize skilled manpower in the sectors. Our Department, through its program, is among those that have
effectively taken the role of capacitating the country’s human power in the area. Developing the water resources of the country is a way
forward in eradicating poverty and meeting the Millennium Development Goal by 2015.

3 2. OBJECTIVES AND DEMAND FOR THE PROGRAM
The Water Resources Engineering (WRE) program is one of the undergraduate degree programs offered in the Institute of Technology.
The opening of the program is in tandem with the country’s efforts towards developing its water resources in a sustainable way. The
importance and need for planned development of water resources of Ethiopia can hardly be overemphasized. With respect to the water
resources potential of the country, critical shortage of capacity has greatly hampered the development of the water sector. Moreover,
frequent floods and droughts have become serious water-related problems in the country. Therefore, the development of water resources
must be a central element of the country’s strategy to improve the quality of life of the people.
In light of this, the Government of Ethiopia has developed a 15-year Water Sector Development Program (2002-2016) which includes the
following program components: water supply and sewerage, irrigation and drainage, hydropower development, water resources and
capacity building. It has subdivided in to two medium term development plans: the Plan for Accelerated and Sustained Development to
End Poverty (PASDEP - 2005/06-2009/10) and its successor Growth and Transformation Plan (2010/11-2014/15). Both are MDG based
development plans.
The plan was based on the core intuitive idea which is sustainable development of water resources and effective governance are
inseparable. Water governance generally refers to the wide-range of socio-economic, political, institutional and decision-making process.
Pursuant to the declaration of the millennium development goals by the UN in 2000, the Government of Ethiopia has continued to further
devolve decision-making process, planning and implementation of social and economic activities at lower levels. The decentralization and
regionalization of policies hascreated conducive environment for the establishment of water institutions at different levels.
The institutions that exist at federal level are directly or indirectly involved in the development and management of water resources.
Shortage of competent manpower at regional and federal levels, however, has been found to be the major impediment to implementing the
envisaged water sector development programs. To overcome the shortage in competent manpower and complement the success of the
government’s development plan different Universities has commenced several programs in the area of Water Resources Engineering.

Arba Minch, Addis Ababa,Bahirdar , Jimma, Haramaya and Madawalabu University are among the universities offering the program in
addition to Hawassa University.
Department of Water Resources and Irrigation Engineeringin Institute of Technology, was established in 2006 to cater the needs of
engineers trained to plan, design, construct, operate and maintain engineering works for the control and utilization of water resources of
the country. Its curriculum has also been subjected to different level of frequent revisions in order to twin and update it to the best possible
standard that able to meet the objectives it stands for.
This revised curriculum comprises various theory and practice-based courses that enable students play productive roles in the planning,
analysis, design, and implementation of Water Resources Engineering projects.

Objectives of modules
A module represents a group of related courses that designed to provide complete competency in a specific subject area. It is designed to
be offered in utmost three consecutive semesters in the context of WRIE department. The WRIE harmonized undergraduate program
comprises 21modules, 68 courses and 300 CP that can equip students with relevant knowledge, skills and attitude to effectively carry out
their future duties and responsibilities.

The department intends to admit 80 students per year with a minimum of 70 graduates annually. The attrition rate is assumed to be less
than 15 % as the program continues in the future. To keep the quality of teaching and learning in the department, academic staff to student
ratio is expected to be greater than or equal to 1/20.
3.2 2.2 Demand for the program
The demand for the program is expected to increase in the future. As students start to appreciate the importance of Water Resources
Engineering in solving real problems of the country, more and more students will be attracted to the program.
The demand for water resources engineers is huge in the country. For instance, the Ministry of Water Resources, with an effective
involvement of Regions and due participation of various stakeholders has developed Institutional Capacity Building Program as one key
component of the 15-year Water Sector Development Program in (2002-2016). It is planned to fulfill the required number and quality of
human resources needed for the implementation of the Development Program by implementing the Capacity Building Program. It
involves reforming and upgrading existing departments. This will open ample job opportunities for graduates of the program.
Moreover, there are also a number of job opportunities in other public and private sectors as well as in non-governmental organizations
for qualified water resources and environmental engineers. The demand for the program is therefore well supported by real needs of the
country and the industry.
4 3. EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
4.1 3.1 Admission Requirement and Target Group

Admission into the first year of the regular programs at all governmental Universities is granted by the Ministry of Education and
processed by office of the Registrar of the University.
Students who have successfully completed the 10 plus 2 years preparatory and have passed the entrance exam could apply for admission
to the Water Resources & Irrigation Engineering Department. In case of excess number of applicants, as limited numbers of students are
admitted per year, admission to the department will be on competitive basis.

Admission to undergraduate degree programs with advanced standing level, for students already holding relevant diploma level
qualification is processed by and granted through the office of the registrar of the University. Students may apply for advanced standing
admission to the office of the registrar within a specified time, if they:
1. Have diplomas from higher learning institution accredited by the Ministry of Education;
2. Present supporting recommendations from their employers where applicable and able to produce financial evidence to support their
education;
3. Meet the selection criteria of the University.
No incentives are set for international students. International students satisfying the entry requirements will be admitted to the program if
they can produce financial statement to support their study through various means.
The University will normally operate on a semester basis, fifteen weeks each semester, from September of one year through to June of the
following year. Each year, a flexible academic calendar shall be prepared for the regular and other non-conventional programs (extension,
in service, summer, etc…) by the Office of the Registrar, in consultation with the Academic Vice President and Deans of Faculties, and
should be approved by the respective academic commissions and the senate.
4.2 3.2 Course of Study
The study program consists of ten semesters with the following sequence: one assessment semester (Pre-engineering), five basic studies
semesters, internship semester, and three semesters for project-based studies.
The first year first semester is common to all Institute of Technology students and meant for introducing students to engineering
profession and covering basic courses. By the time the first semester is completed, the institute may arrange appropriate mechanism based
on the general criteria of the Institute to allocate the students to the specific departments. By such processes, WRE department will enjoy
its specific number of students during the second semester of first year students.
Starting from first year 2nd semester to 3rd year second semester, students of the WRE department focus on basic and relevant concepts,
principles and tools of engineering studies.

After having successfully completed the basic engineering studies, the students will do their internship in the 9th semester. This will
expose students to the real world water resources and irrigation engineering problems and practices. After the internship semester,
students will be required to undertake project-based courses and a Bachelor of Science Thesis work. This will equip students with
knowledge and skills of practical significance.The program allows students focus on hydrology, hydraulics, irrigation & drainage and
hydropower engineering.
Structure of the program

The program comprises 21 modules with courses from diverse fields that include mathematics and natural sciences, field-specific basic
sciences, field-specific specialization, non-field specific subjects, and practice-based studies. Table 3.2 and Fig. 3.1 represent the
distribution of modules.
European Credit Transfer System (ECTS)

The WRE program follows the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). ECTS is a student-centered system based on the student
workload required to achieve the objectives of a program. It is based on the principle that 60 credit points measure the workload of a full-
time student during one academic year. The calculation of ECTS for each course is based on the following criteria: students learn for 16
weeks/semester, 27 hours’ workload = 1 credit points, and credit points are given to lecture, tutorial, lab/practice, and home study.
The overall student’s workload in ECTS credit point is 300, with 30 ECTS/semester in most cases. It also covers internship, which carries
30 ECTS. The real weekly students’ contact hours range from 29 to 35 except the last semester with only 10-contact hours/week. In the
last semester, students are required to write their Bachelor of Science Thesis. The following table represents the modules per category and
the corresponding ECTS. The modules are categorized in to the following categories:
• Mathematics and Natural Sciences
• Field-specific Basic Sciences
• Field-specific specialization
• Non-field Specific Subjects
• Practice, Project and Thesis

4. ATTAINMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The WRE program has set various objectives and its constituencies should check learning outcomes
whose attainment regularly. The constituencies of the program may include staff, students, alumni,
employers, and eminent professionals.
Staffs and students of the department are responsible for making regular internal assessment of the
program. There has been evaluation of performance of instructors However; no systematic program-
level assessment has been made yet.
5 5. QUALITY ASSURANCE MEASURES

The department of WRE gives great value to quality of its programs. To this end, the department is
planning to put in place quality assurance measures. First and for most the department intends to
regularly evaluate and improve the quality of the teaching-learning process through the semester-based
feedbacks of its students.
Moreover, the department will have its first B.Sc. graduates in 2016/17 through this harmonized
curriculum. It is intended to check the quality of the program by conducting systematic graduate
survey, preferably as part of an Alumni system for broader networking.
The department also plans to improve the relevance and content of the program by refining and
revising its curriculum in light of recent developments in the field and real demands for the profession.
Furthermore, it is the intention of the department to increase its academic and research capability by
launching specialized postgraduate study programs.
The plan towards getting accreditation from AQUIN in Germany also forms part of the quality
assurance measure. This will force the department to make every effort towards meeting the quality
requirements of the accreditation agency.

• To identify the different types of soil conservation
Measures
Course Description This course is designed to acquaint students with principles of
erosion and erosion mechanisms against the valuable resource soil.
Types of erosion and factors affecting erosion are dealt. Estimation
of soil loss by water erosion has given more attention to aware
students about the fate of soil erosion. Conservation measures to
alleviate the problem of erosion are discussed viz: contouring, strip
cropping, terracing, and types of terrace, planning the terrace
systems, terrace outlet, location, construction and maintenance.
Various conservation structures (permanent and temporary
structures and their design; functional requirement and limitation
of conservation structures are addressed. Wind erosion, its
mechanism and causes, measures to tackle it has been introduced.
Control of soil erosion by wind: agronomic and engineering
measures are included. The essence of water conservation,
percolation, evaporation losses of water from water bodies,
reservoirs, canals and their control measures are highlighted. The
concept of Water harvesting techniques and soil conservation
planning are indicated.
