About the Conference

Civil Engineering Department of the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, under the aegis of the Indian Society for Hydraulics (ISH) shall hold HYDRO 2015
INTERNATIONAL viz. 20th International Conference on Hydraulics, Water Resources and River Engineering from December 17 to 19, 2015 at Roorkee, India.
The conference aims at providing a forum for dissemination of recent contributions from academicians, scientists, researchers, practitioners and consultants
in the fields of hydraulics, hydrology and water resources.

Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (formerly University of Roorkee) is
among the most widely acclaimed institutes of higher engineering education/
research. Its Civil Engineering Department, established in 1847 is known for its
superlative academic/research standards and outreach at the national as well
as international level.
Indian Society of Hydraulics (ISH), a technical, educational and non-profiteering
national organization, was established in 1992 to serve as a common platform
for engineers, scientists and technical personnel working in hydraulics and other allied fields. ISH helps technical personnel stay abreast with the latest development in hydraulics and water resources by organizing regular meets, symposiums, gatherings and seminars. The body also periodically recognizes and
awards outstanding achievers in the field.
