Water engineering is focused on surface water hydrology, hydraulics, water quality, water sensitive urban design and water resources. The National Committee of Water Engineering (NCWE) is a committee of the Civil College and serves as a point of reference for EA members, local water panels and affiliated international organisations.
The key objectives of the NCWE are to:
- coordinate water engineering conferences, workshops and training
- publish the Australasian journal of water resources
- support the practice of hydrology through local Engineers Australia panels
- promote engineering excellence and acknowledge the contribution of individuals to the profession through awards and scholarships.
The NCWE also publishes research, discussion papers, maintains industry guidelines and supports local technical activities.
