CIVIL-413: Urban hydraulic systemsSustainable freshwater and urban drainage system are considered.
Fresh water: capture, reservoir and net.
Drainage: hydrology, sponge city, individual conduit and manhole hydraulics.
The integral r
ENV-321: Aquatic ecosystemsInland waters are now being recognized are major players of global biogeochemical cycles. They also provide essential ecosystem services such as fresh water and fish, and link continental processes wi
HUM-226: Wellbeing and Planetary BoundariesL'objectif de ce cours est de donner une compréhension globale des enjeux de la durabilité et de ses implications. Que signifie "durabilité" ? Comment est-elle mesurée ? Comment l'atteindre ?
AR-201(an): Studio BA3 (Truwant et Rodet)Nous allons explorer le potentiel de l'entre-deux en tant qu'espace transversal entre le paysage et l'architecture. Un espace qui peut être à la fois organique, tectonique, numérique. Un espace de tra
ENG-410: Energy supply, economics and transitionThis course examines energy systems from various angles: available resources, how they can be combined or substituted, their private and social costs, whether they can meet the energy demand, and how

ENV-424: Water resources engineeringWater resources engineering designs systems to control the quantity, quality, timing, and distribution of water to support human demands and the needs of the environment.
PENS-223: Waters within citiesKnowledge of how to articulate the "urban transition" is today urgently needed. The course reflects on the possibility of designing an urban space without negatively impacting on its water quality.
ENV-426: Fluvial biogeosciencesStream and river ecosystems are increasingly deteriorated owing to global change and climate change. Students will understand basic physical, chemical and biological processes in streams and rivers, a
