流域对世界人口至关重要，这意味着工业界和学术界都对水动力学和水管理方面的研究培训提出了很高的要求。利兹大学在环境背景下与水有关的研究和GIS开发方面享誉世界，而我们的流域动力学与管理理学硕士课程则以此为基础。该计划的核心部分是流域水文和基本环境GIS。选择流域（RB）路径的学生将获得有关河道水力和泥沙输送，河流生态和环境评估的高级知识和技能。地理信息系统（GIS）途径的学生将获得有关GIS的高级知识和技能，用于环境，GIS编程以及数字图像分析和遥感。这门高度实用的课程提倡“边做边学”，并通过课程作业获得1
River basins are of fundamental importance to the world's population, meaning that research training in water dynamics and management are in high demand by both industry and academia. The University of Leeds has a world-class reputation for water-related research and geographical information systems (GIS) development in an environmental context and our Masters degree in River Basin Dynamics and Management with GIS builds on that success. Core components of the programme are river basin hydrology and basic environmental GIS. You will gain advanced knowledge and skills in channel hydraulics and sediment transport, river ecology and environmental assessment. You will also be able to gain an advanced knowledge and skills in GIS for environment, GIS programming and digital image analysis and remote sensing. This highly practical course advocates 'learning by doing' and is assessed 100% by coursework. We host guest lecturers from business, industry and academia, visit work places and conduct a series of field, laboratory and PC-based practicals. You also have the chance to do a work placement. You will learn a detailed understanding of the principles of water resource management and an appreciation of the institutional and legal frameworks impacting on river basin management. You learn to formulate important research questions and design methodological approaches to answer them, and to develop quantitative analyses skills.
