Description
The Department of Civil Engineering is a permanent member of the (SADC) Waternet. Since 2001, the department engaged itself in supporting (SADC) Waternet with curriculum development and therefore is offering the specialisation module “Water for People”.
The Integrated Water Resources Management Modular Master Programme (IWRM - MMP) is accredited SADC wide and through UNESCO-IHE and meets international standards.
The complete curriculum over two semesters was implemented at the Universities Dar es Salaam, Harare, and Western Cape, with the University of Malawi and the Polytechnic of Namibia/Namibia University of Science and Technology supporting SADC stakeholders with one specialisation module each. (Water for People - Polytechnic of Namibia/Namibia University of Science and Technology).
This module lends itself for best capacity building options at the Namibia University of Science and Technology for upgrading current curricula to international standards with the support of SADC higher education institutions and the UNESCO-IHE in Delft/NL.
The University therefore only offers the module “Water for People” which consists of the last semester for the Integrated Masters programme.
Admission Requirements
Students should have already completed two or more semesters at participating Universities and will only be registered for the above module which consists of four courses.
