Graduate profile on a Bachelor of Science Degree

in Water Resources and Irrigation Engineering

(WRIE)
What is Water Resources and Irrigation Engineering (WRIE)?
► Water Resources and Irrigation
Engineering is a field of study
that deals with collecting and
distributing water where and
when it’s needed.
WRIE studies offer:
 Undergraduate studies offer a series of basic
and applied courses in the area of WRIE
 fluid mechanics,
 hydraulics, hydrology,
 ground waters,
 water supply and wastewater systems,
 irrigations and drainage,
 river hydraulics, sedimentation,
 river-training works, flood protection etc.
The program also offers civil-
engineering courses, which
includes elements of
 Geo-Technical
Engineering,
 structural engineering,
 construction engineering,
 Materials engineering,
 Transportation
engineering,
 Geodesic surveying and
geology
 Objectives of the Program
 This program is aimed at training
manpower required for the realization
of the use of country’s vast water
resources potential.
 Well-qualified Water Resources and
Irrigation Engineers will be produced
through the program who can actively
be engaged in the
1. planning,
2. design,
3. development and
4. management of water resources
projects.
 The B.Sc. degree in WRIE may be the starting
point for further academic qualification
 In the framework of post-graduate studies in
various water related fields such as:
 Irrigation and Drainage Engineering
