Water Technology Global perspective of water!
Water being an essential resource for the daily life of an individual, plays a major role in environmental engineering and becomes a key aspect for present and future scope of study/research. Challenges in water related topics like water supply, desalination, water purification are increasing due to an increase in the global population, unavailability of clean water, environmental pollution and climate change. Also, residential and industrial wastewater increases the opportunity for wastewater treatment processes. Moreover, since the evolution of energy supply water plays a major role as an emission-free energy source by meeting the demand in addition to fossil fuels. Hence aspects like “resource-oriented sanitation in developing countries”, “Wastewater Treatment”, “Water as Energy Sources”, “Water desalination” requires an investment of knowledge and human resources to identify “sustainable solution” fighting the environmental pollution and climate change.
Experience of our students

For an aspiring academic like myself, the Deutschlandstipendium scholarship helped me focus on my studies as I felt supported in terms of finance. The masters course in Water Technology has so far helped me gain in depth knowledge about the environment and water related issues. This has impacted positively on my perception of the earth. The experience has given me the opportunity to be involved in some challenging yet rewarding research work in the field of water and environmental sustainability. Thank you SRH Hochschule and my dedicated Professors for this life-changing opportunity.

Information and videos about actual DAAD project are now online
The School of Engineering and Architecture presented the first interdisciplinary Summer School "Neckar Now: Transformative approaches for a sustainable future" which took place from 16th until 21st of August 2020. More information can be found on our Landingpage.
The topic of water is also the focus of the Democratia-Aqua-Technica project which deals with the question of innovative technical solution concepts for sustainable water resource management. The events are organized together with the serbian partner university "University of Novi Sad" and other universities from Russia, Hungary and Turkey (https://democratia-aqua.org/ ). In the future, further projects are to follow under the umbrella of Democratia-Aqua-Technica initative.
