    Ph.D. Water Science and Governance shall be for a minimum duration of three years, including course work and a maximum of six years. Extension beyond the above limits will be governed by the relevant clauses as stipulated in the Statute/Ordinance of the individual Institution concerned.

    Department of Regional Water Studies at the TERI University offers both full time and part time Ph.D. programs in Water Science and Governance. Over the years, there has been growing pressure on the water systems leading to precarious balance between various competing uses of water. Rapid population growth and climate change has further added to water woes and conflicts at all levels. There is a growing consensus among the stakeholders to adopt an interdisciplinary approach to sustainable water management. The change management, however, requires an in-depth understanding of complex water-related issues through basic as well as applied research to influence the decision maker and planners.
