A wide range of individual modules assembles the course going through three phases in 4 Terms. A module may comprise a number of lectures, exercises, seminars, workshops or excursions. Phase I (Term 1) contains basic modules, of which some are mandatory and some can be selected. For further advanced courses in phase II (Term 2 / 3), students may choose optional modules to acquire their desired specialisation. The study programme is designed together with the professorships of the Department of Hydrosciences and other cooperation partners. A written thesis in Term 4 (phase III) is going to complete the Master. Prospective students can get a first insight into studying and researching at the Department of Hydrosciences HERE.

International, unterstützend und praxisnah
Das Masterstudium Hydro Science and Engineering an der TU Dresden war für mich eine sehr bereichernde Erfahrung. Besonders wertvoll ist die internationale Zusammensetzung des Studiengangs: Studierende mit ganz unterschiedlichen fachlichen Hintergründen arbeiten zusammen, was den Austausch lebendig macht und die Projektarbeit spürbar bereichert.
Die Mischung aus theoretischen und praktischen Inhalten ist anspruchsvoll, aber gerade diese Kombination hält das Studium spannend und vielseitig. Die Lehrenden sind durchweg hilfsbereit und nehmen...Erfahrungsbericht weiterlesen
Sehr positiv fällt zudem auf, wie gut die meisten Lehrenden online erreichbar sind. E-Mails werden in der Regel schnell beantwortet, und viele bieten digitale Sprechstunden oder unkomplizierte Kommunikationswege an. Insgesamt entsteht dadurch ein moderner, effizienter Rahmen, der den Studienalltag deutlich angenehmer macht.
Life in TUD
The experience was really nice. Got a nice opportunity to learn and experience new topics in water science and environment protection.
Really nice professors and the lectures were really good.
One of my favourite things about the course is flood risk management field trip. It was really meaningful study trip and gained a lot of knowledge by spending time with experts in this field.
Spannender Einblick in Wasser und Umwelttechnik
Der Kurs Hydroscience and Engineering an der TU Dresden ist sehr interessant und praxisorientiert. Die Dozenten erklären die Themen klar, und es gibt viele Beispiele aus der realen Forschung. Besonders gut gefällt mir die internationale Atmosphäre und der interdisziplinäre Ansatz. Insgesamt ein anspruchsvoller, aber lohnender Studiengang.
I enjoyed it
The materials for self study were always provided.
Nice study tour within the course “Flood risk management”.
In case of questions there was always a contact person to ask.
Seminar rooms are spacious and there were always places. All the lecturers were very competent and knowledgeable.
As for equipment for classes and lectures I think there was always necessary digital equipment.
