Water Resources is an interdisciplinary graduate program. The term "Water Resources" is used here in the broadest sense: the study of how water moves through and interacts with natural systems, its chemical and biological components, and the physical, social, economic and legal aspects of human interaction with the water cycle. Over 50 faculty in 13 departments in 7 colleges are currently involved in the program. The program trains students to address complex water resources issues by building disciplinary depth in concert with interdisciplinary breadth to understand focused problems and communicate across disciplines. We strive to educate scientists and engineers to be more politically aware and policymakers to be more scientifically knowledgeable
