The course has as a training objective the knowledge of hydrological processes for the understanding and management of problems inherent in the hydrological cycle.
Three primary objectives can be identified:
Know the hydrological phenomena. Specifically, the notions concerning the properties of precipitation and the dynamics of the formation of river floods will be deepened.
Understanding and learning the concept of project flow, central training objective being the basis of most hydraulic designs.
Learn and apply the Rational Formula which represents the training objective of the modeling type with a more practical and less phenomenological implication.
In addition to the three main objectives, the student will also be trained directly on some soft-skills related to the topics of the course, such as basic IT tools (spreadsheets, GIS).
