The Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Technology, SGT University successfully organized a two-day hands-on workshop on “Introduction to Hydrological Modelling Software and HEC-RAS Software” on 3rd and 4th November 2025.

The expert speaker discussed the basics of hydrology, river cross-section geometric design, open channel flow, and demonstrated the use of Remote Sensing and QGIS software in hydrological studies. Participants also explored real-life projects and case studies, linking theoretical knowledge with practical applications.

Students actively participated in the sessions, engaging in hands-on exercises on HEC-RAS, and gaining practical exposure to hydrological analysis, flood simulation, and river modelling.

Workshop Highlights:

• Fundamentals of hydrology and hydraulics
• River geometry and open channel flow analysis
• Introduction to Remote Sensing and QGIS applications
• Hands-on training using HEC-RAS software
• Discussion on real-world hydrological projects

The workshop received an overwhelming response and provided participants with valuable insights into modern tools and technologies used in water resources and environmental engineering.
