Students have an overview of the essential hydraulic measures. They can assign these to different goals and tasks, distinguish between different systems (in river engineering, flood protection, at dams and power plants) based on purpose and conditions, and select and use them purposefully. They also have basic knowledge of planning such construction measures.

  • Water and energy management basics
  • River engineering (basics and measures)
  • Dams (weirs, reservoirs)
  • Flood protection
  • Hydraulic engineering
  • Utilisation of hydropower (plant types, infrastructure, equipment, regulation, monitoring)
