Effective management of water systems are crucial to ensuring sustainability and protecting the environment. Increasingly, at the same time there is shortage of professional skills to develop water management programs. This virtual internship will prepare students to tackle real-world water distribution problems with WaterGEMS/WaterCAD, including a project for - the design of a water supply network for a new subdivision.  Students will develop skills in creating and editing WaterGEMS/WaterCAD models, managing data, performing fire flow analysis, identifying critical segments, and running simulations.

Water Resource Management Virtual Internship entails completion of the following:
