Title
Theoretical Background
Learning Outcome
Develop an in-depth understanding of the theoretical and mathematical basis of aquifer boundary conditions and the computation of aquifer parameters (hydraulic conductivity, storage coefficient, and transmsissivity).
Title
Writing Skills
Learning Outcome
Become better science writers by weekly practice.
Title
Problem Solving Techniques
Learning Outcome
Enhance the ability to solve problems by analyzing real world data sets ( including a final project), some of which do not have a unique solution.
Title
Applied Technology
Learning Outcome
Develop a working use of the methods of aquifer parameter analysis including graphical and computer based methods.
