Brief description of institution/organization
The
objective of the Center is to train serving engineers from Asia, Africa and
other developing countries in various aspects of water resources engineering and
to bring together engineering talent from these countries for a first hand
understanding and appreciation of each other's problems and to help evolve, by
pooling knowledge, new techniques in water resources development and utilization
suited to conditions in this region. In addition, the education programme at the
Center helps foster a feeling of fellowship amongst the engineers of these
countries.
Since its creation in 1951 the Center has trained 2 032
serving engineers from 38 countries in the field of Water Resources Development
and Irrigation Water Management. |
