COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course Objectives

Soil and water conservation engineering is the application of engineering principles to the solution of soil and water management problems. The conservation of these vital resources implies utilization without waste so as to make possible a high level of production that can be continued indefinitely. The objective of this course is to understand diverse topics of soil and water conservation engineering such as of flood runoff control, soil erosion, conservation structures, nonpoint source pollution, watershed monitoring/modeling, water quality, BMP, TMDLs.
