Questions
Which syllabus does the Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the university examination?
Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the AKTU scheme, with previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.
Are hydrograph numericals included?
Yes. Unit hydrograph, phi-index, well yield and duty-delta numericals are solved in AKTU exam format.
