Course Objectives	To develop an understanding of the hydrologic systems commonly used and of the hydrological processes in global water cycle with the determination of design flood characteristics by the help of statistical approaches. The course provides a quantitative introduction to the principles of hydrology and water resources planning for hydrologic design and analysis of systems concerned with the use and control of water.
Course Learning Outcomes	The students who succeeded in this course; Students can develop equations of hydrologic processes for the design of hydraulic systems Students can analyze hydrologic data for obtaining design values of hydraulic systems by using statistical techniques Students can estimate volume of runoff, storage routing and flood-damage mitigation Students can find the water discharges from aquifers and drawdown under pumping operation The student can develop equations for determination of hydraulic interactions between groundwater and surface water systems.
Course Content	Principles of hydrology, water resources planning for design and analysis of systems concerned with the use and control of water, storage, water transmission.
