A Comprehensive Course in Integrated Urban Flood Modelling

Using MIKE+

Online learning: A self-paced course combined with online meetings with your own private DHI urban tutor

This course will teach you how to address integrated urban flood modelling in a comprehensive and holistic way. It will enable you to consolidate and continue developing your urban flood modelling skills up to the level where you can apply your knowledge across a variety of integrated urban flood modelling projects. The course will provide you with the possibility of enrolling in more advanced MIKE+ training courses.

Affordable and convenient high-quality technical training!

Are you a professional, a researcher or similar in the fields of urban flood modelling? Do you wish to learn how to use MIKE+ for integrated flood modelling? Do you have a basic knowledge of urban hydrology and network hydraulics, for instance MIKE+ CS (MIKE1D)?

Are you prepared to do a six-module self-study course within 30 days – atyour own pace – from the comfort of your own office, home or any location convenient for you? And, in addition, have the possibility to arrange two online sessions, each of thirty minutes’ duration, with your own private DHI urban tutor to monitor your progress and discuss your challenges?

If yes, you can benefit from this course. Upon completion of your course, you will be able to apply the features of MIKE+ that are essential to set up integrated urban flood modelling models, run simulations and review results across a variety of integrated urban flood modelling projects in flood risk management and planning, and related domains.

As a bonus, DHI has added extra course materials, offering you the opportunity to invest an extra 1-2 hours of self-study per session to dive even deeper into the features of the MIKE+ software.

Course details

This is a self-paced course. You will learn online through a combination of video lectures, demonstration videos and quizzes, hands-on exercises and reading materials. Additionally, you get two one-to-one online meetings with your own DHI urban tutor. In this way, your learning process and objectives are optimised.

Approximately 120 minutes (two hours) work per module is expected to get the maximum out of the course in addition to two 30-minute one-to-one online tutor meetings.

You are expected to complete your course and online meetings within 30 days of receiving receipt of your free, Internet license.
