The International WaterCentre Master of Integrated Water Management is a program which aims to improve the capacity of water management professionals to respond to water-related problems across the globe
The IWC Masters brings together experts from our four University Partners: Griffith University, Monash University, The University of Queensland and The University of Western Australia as well as Australian industry and government.
The Program is designed to transfer know-how and skills to future leaders in the water sector.
Course Structure
The Masters program will be conducted over three Semesters and hosted by The University of Queensland in Brisbane. Students will be able to enroll in the Masters Program from July 2007.
It is aimed at mid career water industry professionals working both in Australia and overseas, and particularly in developing countries.
“Some of the most pressing issues facing developing countries are the need to balance water management with other human development imperatives,” says Professor Greenfield.
“One of the specialisation streams of the second semester is devoted entirely to that question. Access to water is inextricably linked to improving health and reducing poverty.”

The course is comprised of a foundation semester in which the fundamentals of water science, sustainability, policy and governance are set out.
The second semester allows students to explore specialist topics including water planning and governance, supply and wastewater treatment, catchment and ecosystem health.
The third and final semester has students, under academic supervision, undertaking an integrated water management project aimed at consolidating the knowledge they have obtained through coursework.
Graduate Diploma and Graduate Certificate in Integrated Water Management will also be offered through the Centre.
