Learning outcomes of the course unit

Student gains basic knowledge of control of water runoff from the river basin with the help of water management systems
and ability to set up models of operative control of supply and protection functions of water management system.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of mathematics, hydrology and hydraulics.

Co-requisites

Reservoirs and water management systems, applied hydrology, operational hydrology, geographic information systems, artificial intelligence methods, operational and system analysis.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Students attend 13 basic lectures on operational management of reservoirs and water management systems. In the exercises, students will complete several basic tasks using computers and available software according to the assignment. At the end of the course, they prepare a test covering the entire scope of the lectured material and take an oral exam.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Attending the exercises, handing in the results of the exercises, passing the written test and the oral exam.

Course curriculum
