Doctor PhD Degree Hydraulic Engineering

The Doctor Ph.D. Degree in Hydraulic Engineering reviews the principles of hydraulic engineering systems and their applications. It balances theory with designs and practical solutions to common hydraulic engineering problems. It examines hydrostatics, pipe flow, pipelines, pipe networks, pumps, open channel flow, hydraulic structures, and water measurement devices.

The program is delivered online via distance learning. The structure is 70% textbooks and 30% thesis. Admission requires adults over 27 years of age with a master’s degree or international equivalent (5 years of study). The program requires 45 to 72 academic credits above a master’s program, with an average duration of 24 months.
