🔍 About the Course
This 12-week course offers a comprehensive introduction to Hydrogeology, focusing on the occurrence, movement, distribution, and quality of groundwater within the Earth's subsurface. Designed for undergraduate and early postgraduate students in Earth Sciences, the course explores both theoretical principles and applied aspects of groundwater systems.
Students will learn about aquifer properties, groundwater flow dynamics, exploration and assessment techniques, quality standards, and sustainable management practices. With increasing global concerns around water scarcity, contamination, and climate change, this course equips learners with the foundational knowledge needed to address groundwater-related challenges in both academic and professional settings.
The course combines lectures, case studies, and hands-on concepts, and concludes with an optional final exam for those seeking a certificate of completion.
