Internship programme
for UG, PG and Research scholars
on

RS & GIS Applications in Water Resources Management

Objectives 

To build the capacity of interns in understanding, assimilating  and applying various geo-spatial tools for efficient water resources planning, development and management, and also they will be able to apply such tools in various other relevant areas of Civil Engineering.

Programme Outcome

The internship aims at providing the right, relevant and advanced  platform for enhancing the knowledge of interns through theory, case studies and  hands on sessions, using emerging and relevant software, for spatio-temporal assessment, planning and management of water resources systems and to prepare the interns to take up the challenges when they go for professional career. At the end of this internship, the interns will be in a position to apply these tools and techniques for efficient and effective planning, development and management of water resources projects.

Overview

Spatio-temporal dimensions of water resources projects are huge in nature. It cross across States, Nations and also encompasses various climatic zones. Assessment, planning, development and management of such mega projects requires huge amount of data assimilation and management in space and it increases the complexity with temporal dimension also. Such projects required high skilled persons with sufficient expertise on information technology, remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) and adequate expertise in managing the activities using high-end modern software.  In this program, interns will be exposed to various theories in development of such advanced subjects, demonstration through case studies and self expertise development through rigorous hands on activities.
