The hydrology minor provides foundational knowledge in water resources including courses in both surface water and groundwater.  Water resources are a critical issue of the 21^st century.  Climate change is changing the frequency of high impact storms and the flooding associated with them.  As droughts become more problematic the access to clean fresh water becomes even more critical.  The minor is appropriate for meteorology majors, climate scientists, and anyone interested in environmental policy.
