For the successful completion of the course, the student should be able to:

• Recall a number of hydrological problems and the basic processes that take place in the hydrologoic cycle, the basic concepts of hydrology and the hydrologic cycle (precipitation, evapotranspiration, infiltration, surface runoff, subsurface flow etc).
• Recognize the scientiofic concepts and principles , methodologies and tools for solving hydrologic problems.
• Model complex hydrologic system with the use of models.
• Manage hydrologic problems.
• Solve various case studies dealing with hydrologic issues.

• Search, analyze and synthesis of data and information with the use of e-technology.
• Autonomous Study.
