Program Description

Our School of Engineering has a successful research group that focuses on water. The group is striving to make catchments, cities and infrastructure more productive, safer and sustainable. Our mission is to foster, promote and conduct research of international quality. We attract high-quality graduates and researchers and train them to international standards. Our range of expertise is broad and includes the development of practical responses to address global change challenges. This is from a local all the way to the global scale.Our research themes include:
  • flow and transport processes in surface and subsurface systems.
  • planning and control of hydraulic networks
  • sustainable management of the water environment, including urban, rural agricultural and forestry environments
  • climate change impact assessment, including flood risk
  • environmental hazard assessment and mitigation, including landslide hazard
  • integrated surface and groundwater pollution controls
  • integrated assessment of coupled natural, technological and human systems
