The course focuses on the general understanding and conceptual design of hydraulic structures. Within the first part of the course, students will learn the fundamentals of design and management of reservoirs, weirs on rivers and navigation structures, including locks and lifts. The second part of the course provides in depth view to dam engineering and hydropower. The course is suitable for both master and bachelor degree students and assumes basic knowledge of hydraulics and hydrology.
