19	Objective of the Course:	The objective of the course is to collect and analyze hydrological data on water storage structures, groundwater, surface waters, rainfalls, surface runoffs, water storage in the soil, evaporation and condensation processes, and use them for planning, project and operation of water resources.
20	Contribution of the Course to Professional Development	In this course, information about advanced hydrology (groundwater hydrology, flood steering, statistical methods in hydrology, etc.) is given to engineers and experts who will work on hydrology and planning of water resources in the future. The course contributes to the professional development of experts and engineers who will work in this field.
