Learning Outcomes
After the successfull completion of the course the student will be able to:
(1) design and analyse water supply, wastewater and stormwater sytems using available computer programs EPANET, SWMM)
(2) design hydraulic structures which are used in such systems ( storage tanks, valves, siphons, manholes etc).
(3) analyse, assess and manage the risk associated with such systems.
