CE 3341 Hydrology Lab

One hour (On Campus)

This course provides an introduction to the principles of hydrology, focusing on the movement, distribution, and management of water in natural and engineered systems. Topics include the hydrologic cycle, precipitation, evapotranspiration, surface runoff, infiltration, groundwater flow, and river and reservoir routing. Students will apply hydrologic modeling techniques to analyze watershed behavior and design water management systems such as storm-water drainage, flood control, and irrigation. Laboratory exercises and real-world case studies will reinforce theoretical concepts and highlight practical challenges in managing water resources. This course prepares students for advanced study and professional practice in water resources engineering and environmental engineering. One two-hour laboratory per week. This lab must be taken with CE 3342. An additional fee may be associated with this course.
