PhD and MSc Scholarships in Hydroinformatic, UNESCO - The Netherlands
Hydroinformatics: Modelling and Information Systems for integrated water management.
Hydroinformatics uses simulation modeling and information and communication technology to help in solving problems of hydraulics, hydrology and environmental engineering for better management of water-based systems.
The Hydroinformatics course aims at enriching traditional engineering practice by introducing innovative approaches in order to open up for the participants much broader prospective.
The participants will learn subject groups comprising of:
Fundamentals, hydraulic and environmental processes
Information systems, GIS, communication and internet
Physically-based simulation modeling
Data-driven modeling and computational intelligence
System analysis, decision support and optimization
Applications : Coastal and estuarial systems modeling and Urban water system modeling
Integration subjects
Advanced topics
Most of the Hydroinformatics participants are financed through Netherlands Fellowship Programme.
For this year, the programme is run directly to M.Sc undertaken for 1.5 years and the NFP will cover tuition fee and living cost.
