Enabling students in fundamental areas for acquiring professional knowledge and for application in practice.

Acquired knowledge is used as a basis for further upgrading in professional courses.

Hydrological cycle, precipitation, evaporation and transpiration, infiltration, runoff, small river waters, large river waters, flood wave propagation, water accumulation, thermal water regime. Measuring water level, water mirror fall, water depth, water speed, flow, water sediment movement. Dependency between water level and water flow, water sediment movement and water flow. Data processing.

Teaching is performed interactively in the form of lectures, auditory, laboratory and computer practice. At lectures, theoretical part of the course content is presented, followed by the characteristic examples for easier understanding. At auditory practice, characteristic exercises are solved and the course content is explained in more detail. At laboratory practice, acquired knowledge is practically applied on the available equipment. Apart from lectures and practice, consultations are regular. A part of the course content that makes a logical unit can be taken during the teaching process in the form of partial examinations. Partial examinations are taken in written form and as tests. Examination grade is made on the basis of: lecture and practice (auditory, laboratory and computer) attendance, partial examination grade and written examination grade (combined exercises and theory).
