ONLINE course offered at Utah State University as part of CUAHSI Virtual University, Fall 2023.
Utah State University Instructor
- David Tarboton, david.tarboton@usu.edu
Overview
CUAHSI Virtual University is a unique national online course, consisting of modules on highly specialized hydrology topics from recent research advances. Its aim is to enhance the depth of graduate course offerings at universities across the nation. Students from participating universities can enroll in a subset of modules of their choosing, resulting in collaborations between instructors and students at different universities. Students earn credit at their home institutions.
Classes are presented online using Zoom and Canvas by the instructor from a participating University. You attend online from any computer.
The course runs from September through December. There are 11 separate modules, each offered by an instructor at one of the participating universities scheduled in a four week block at the times below. Students choose which of these modules they want to do, and may register for any number of modules.
Registration
Register for one credit of CEE 6930 for each module you plan to do. Each module is significant work, and three modules is regarded as equivalent to a full semester course.
You need to register twice.
Please email david.tarboton@usu.edu to let me know the modules you intend to do so that I can verify you are registered properly in both places.
