About the course
The Hydroinformatics and Water Management (Euro Aquae) MSc applies advanced information and communications technology to the management of water. You will foster a common international technical culture with students from all over the world, drawing upon the resources and expertise of universities across Europe.
The course offers a joint degree between five European universities as a part of the Erasmus + co-operation and mobility programme. Running since 2004, it is one of the most successful courses in this programme and in 2016 it was approved for a third term of funding. The partner universities are:
Newcastle University (UK)
University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis (France)
Brandenburg University of Technology at Cottbus (Germany)
Technical University of Catalonia (Spain)
Warsaw University of Technology (Poland)
You will receive quantitative training in hydrology, hydraulics and modern information communication technology (ICT) within the context of water management.
Semester one - an introduction, bringing you and other students to a common level of ability in key technical areas. Studied at any partner university except Newcastle.
Semester two - the acquisition and use of hydroinformatic concepts, methods and tools. Studied at Newcastle
Semester three - thematic specialisation including: software engineering and modelling (Cottbus); groundwater management (Warsaw); decision support systems (Catalonia); and urban waters management (Nice). Studied at any partner university except Newcastle
Semester four - a research development project or professional practice in industry, available at all partner institutions
The course is also accredited by the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM).
