A Comprehensive Course in
Urban Drainage Modelling

Using MIKE+ Collection System (MIKE 1D)

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 urban drainage modelling in a comprehensive and holistic way. It will enable you to consolidate and continue developing your modelling skills up to the level where you can apply your knowledge across a variety of urban drainage 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 storm water drainage or wastewater collection? Do you have a basic knowledge of urban hydrology and network hydraulics?

Are you prepared to do a six-module self-study course within 30 days –at your 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 urban collection system models, run simulations and review results across a variety of projects.

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+ Collection System (MIKE 1D) 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.
