Hydrology
Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental)
Hydrology is the scientific study of water's movement, distribution, and quality across the Earth, including precipitation, groundwater, rivers, and watersheds. Hydrologists apply this knowledge to manage water resources, predict floods and droughts, and inform infrastructure and environmental policy decisions. The field is essential to civil engineering, environmental science, agriculture, and climate research, particularly as water scarcity and extreme weather become growing global concerns.
