  3. Water resources engineering involves: • Water and wastewater treatment plant design • Irrigation Engineering • River Engineering, Hydraulics, Hydrodynamics, Sediment Transport, Contaminant Transport, River Morphology, Ice-covered rivers • Hydraulic Structures (reservoirs, flloodways, dams, dykes, spillways & sluice gates, channels, water intakes,...) • Drainage Canals • Groundwater and Seepage, well design, seepage control, underground contaminant transport • Hydrology, winter hydrology, climate change • Extreme events: floods, torrents, mudflows, debris flows
