Introduction

The Department  of Water Engineering& Management is a dynamic and integral part of the Faculty of Applied Natural Sciences. Tomorrow, will be one of the largest and most successful of its type in Jordan.

The program provides students with professional qualifications, basic skills and hands on experience in areas of great importance to the community in the sense of insuring continued water supply, protected water systems, conserved water resources and well managed wastewaters. The program is attractive to students who have in mind a career involving water issues and related infrastructure development. The School of Natural Applied Sciences administers the program.

Graduates from the Department of Water Engineering& Management are to be highly employable and command some of the best starting salaries. Leading organizations from Jordan and the Gulf region are to regularly recruit from GJU and many offer more graduate employment opportunities to our students and graduates than to those of other universities.

Objectives& Outcomes

The broad objective of the program's undergraduate programs is to develop well-educated graduates with the basic skills, attributes and knowledge required to practice as professional Water Managers and Water Engineers. The desired skills are those that enable graduates to be problem solvers; critical thinkers; life long learners; good communicators; team players; independent investigators; effective managers; self-motivated; and economically, environmentally and socially aware.

It is intended that these attributes are developed in students at the same time that they gain knowledge in a broad range of disciplines. In addition, an objective of the programs is to provide the skills and knowledge in a social context for direct impact on the community with sever water shortage. Integrating courses in each year of each program (the Engineering Practice courses) have been introduced to achieve this objective.
