The student application process is a holistic review, providing students with an ideal connection to a faculty member whose research complements their own.
The Water Resources Science (WRS) graduate program is an interdisciplinary approach to water resources education, offering M.S. and Ph.D. degrees on the Twin Cities and Duluth campuses.
WRS students are a close-knit group who are active on their own campus and who get the opportunity to connect with each other across the miles.
WRS produces scientists with strong technical skills, a holistic understanding of the hydrologic cycle and associated ecosystems, and an understanding of the interplay between the bio-physical sciences and the social sciences in developing and implementing public policies related to water.
