About the Program

Water resources, the indispensable basis for development, food supply and health, are becoming increasingly scarce and polluted. The concept of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) offers solutions to the water crisis by linking water to other vital resources. It regards the whole water cycle in connection with human interventions as the basis for sustainable water management. The Master's program is application-oriented, aiming to educate experts in the field of Integrated Water Resources Management. The program requires cross-linked thinking and provides economic and managerial competencies alongside technical knowledge. The program is offered in two lines: IWRM Master's Joint Exchange Program with focus on the Middle East and Northern Africa region (IWRM-MENA) in cooperation with German Jordanian University, and Single Degree Master's Program IWRM International.
