Water and Sanitation Research Projects

The Research Projects are divided into our 6 communities of practice, however it is also important for students to be able to see where the Research Projects fit into their own engineering disciplines. In the table below we have indicated which projects may be suitable for specific engineering disciplines in the Water group. However please bear in mind that these categories are only able to provide an indication of the project content – for example, a mechanical student may see a mechanical engineering solution to a project that we have specified as “civil”. Please contact the Research Team with any queries.
