Overview

With Water Resources Engineering from Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava students can design a broad array of water management plans, water management systems, water utilities, sewage systems and irrigation and drainage systems. Relevant areas are: the design of catchment management plans, water resources protection plans, waste management and management of integrated catchment areas in urban and rural environments.

Graduates understand scientific research methods, including physical and mathematical modelling, experiments and their evaluation, analyses of results and their application to practical water management issues with the focus laid on water resources management. They are able to develop their own original and interdisciplinary solutions to problems. They understand and can resolve multidisciplinary issues of hydraulic structures and their interaction with the environment within the framework of sustainable development.

Careers

Our graduates can be employed by scientific and research units, in universities and institutes of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, and in other scientific and research units, e.g. in water management projects dealing with demanding tasks involving integrated water resources management, and in urban, industrial, agricultural and municipal sectors.
