This document proposes a new Bachelor of Technology program in Water Resources Development and Management at the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. It provides background on IIT Roorkee and its existing academic departments. It outlines the need and scope for the proposed program given increasing global water issues and the importance of water resources in India. The curriculum structure includes core water resources courses along with engineering sciences, basic sciences, and humanities/social sciences. Comparisons are made to existing civil engineering and other related programs. An overview of credits and course details are provided across 4 years of the program.

2. About IIT Roorkee âŚ
⢠The Roorkee College of Engineering was established in 1847 AD as the First Engineering
College in the British Empire. The College was renamed as The Thomason College of Civil
Engineering in 1854 and became the first Engineering University of Independent India in
1949. It rose to the elevation of IIT Roorkee in September 2001.

4. PREAMBLEÂ TOÂ THEÂ PROPOSEDÂ PROGRAM
⢠About 70% of earth mass is covered by water.
⢠65% of human body mass consists of water. Therefore,
water is vital for life.
⢠We need water for ROTI (food), KAPDA (clothing), AUR
(and) MAKAN (shelter) We also need water for drinking and(and) MAKAN (shelter). We also need water for drinking and
energy generation.
⢠We know that most of human civilizations have developed on
the banks of rivers/water bodies. Since the existence of
water resources is variable in space and time, water
demands often do not match the supply.demands often do not match the supply.
⢠Water is a universal solvent and it results in water pollution
abatement. Reversal of water pollution/water purification is
d f th h

need of the hour.
5. PREAMBLEÂ TOÂ THEÂ PROPOSEDÂ PROGRAM
⢠Almost all parts of the world, there are water disputes. Therefore, one
need skilled man-power to deal with various aspects of WRD&M.
Th ti l i i l b l t ti d d l ti⢠The continuously increasing global water consumption and depleting
renewable resources are big challenge to the mankind in twenty-first
century.
⢠The dwindling supply of water is being caused by factors such as
population growth, climate change, poor investment in infrastructures
and management problems.
⢠A large percentage of the Indian population is dependent on
agriculture for its sustenance. Since independence, considerable
efforts have been made towards attaining food, water and energyefforts have been made towards attaining food, water and energy
security, to meet the ever-increasing demands. Undoubtedly, though
the Green Revolution technologies of the 1960s have contributed
significantly, there exists a scope for further improvement.

6. PREAMBLE
⢠Fast urbanization is leading to desertification, waterlogging, soil salinity,
water born epidemics etc.. For increasing the food production, it is desired to
improve and expand the agricultural water management through scientificimprove and expand the agricultural water management through scientific
creation of storages and its operation & management along with silt
management.
⢠Beside these various parts of the world are facing droughts and floods⢠Beside these, various parts of the world are facing droughts and floods
simultaneously. Further, people throughout the world are fighting on sharing
of water. It is apprehended that countries may fight over the issue of water in
future. In order to resolve the various water related disputes, it is desiredp ,
that the technocrats and administrators of future are equipped with the
scientific knowledge of water resources development and its management.
⢠Keeping this in view, the Department of Water Resources Development &eep g t s e , t e epa t e t o ate esou ces e e op e t &
Management at IIT Roorkee proposes to start a B.Tech. program in the area
of Water Resources Development & Management. It is felt that there will be
a strong need of water resources engineers in future to solve various
6
problems related to water in rural and urban areas at National and
International levels.

8. Major difference from the existing B.Tech. in Civil Engineering
⢠Civil Engineering deals with all aspects of engineering and that is
why it is known as the mother of engineering. It primarily deals
with basic infrastructure development. Its major sections are:
Structural and Construction, Transportation, Geomatics,
Geotechnical and Foundation, Water Resources and
Environmental, etc.
⢠Water Resources Development and Management (WRD&M) isWater Resources Development and Management (WRD&M) is
further branched into Hydraulics & Flood Control Management,
