Water Resources Engineering Program Regular and Co-op (WRE/WRE:C)
School of Engineering, College of Physical and Engineering Science
Water resources engineering focuses on the use and management of land and water resources in rural and urban watersheds. The
hydrologic and hydraulic behaviour of watershed flow systems is combined with engineering science and ecological principles
in the design of water management systems and strategies. Water management includes flood prevention, warning and control;
drainage; design of natural channels; irrigation; and erosion prevention and control. The supply of water for municipal, industrial
and agricultural purposes is considered in the context of resource conservation. Identification of potential point and diffused
sources of pollutants is used to develop efficient, environmentally sustainable and economical methods to preserve high-quality
water to sustain human life and water-dependent ecosystems.
