CURRICULUM
 

The curriculum is specially designed to show the interaction between the various aspects of the shared water resources systems. The curriculum consists of 10 units (nine courses and a research project) divided into two semesters. The titles, the number of hours per week (lectures and tutorials) and the maximum grade of each unit are tabulated. The duration of each semester is 15 week with a load of 30 hours per week. Students are expected to submit their research projects and give presentations on the topics selected within four weeks following the final examinations of the second semester. As the participants are expected to come from different countries (especially developing ones), the subject matter of their projects combines and utilizes their individual interests and expertise.
