The study of the relationship between rainfall and runoff. Topics include precipitation, infiltration, hydrograph analysis and synthesis, and modeling. Models used: Win-TR55 and HEC-HMS.

Open-channel flow and floodplain modeling. Steady-state flow and gradually-varied flow calculations. Model used: HEC-RAS

The study of chemical reactions in environmental waters. Topics include equilibrium and kinetic calculations, the carbonate cycle, oxidation-reduction reactions and speciation. Model used: Visual MINTEQ

The development of assessment tools and techniques to predict the risks of environmental chemicals and microorganisms.

The design of conveyance and collection systems. Topics include applied fluid mechanics, and piping system design for water distribution, and wastewater and stormwater collection. Models used: EPANET and SWMM.
