Short courses

Regular short courses

UNESCO-IHE offers a wide range of short, intensive and highly specialised courses for mid-career and senior experts who wish to upgrade and refresh their knowledge and skills.

They are intended for individuals or groups of professionals with a specific area of interest, and limited time at their disposal.

The short courses are held in Delft and vary in length from one to four weeks. They also vary in focus and content, ranging from specialised technical issues, to management challenges and approaches.

The educational methods used in these short courses include lectures, individual or group exercises in the classroom, at the computer, or in the laboratory.

Fieldwork, excursions and field visits to relevant institutions are often part of the courses, allowing the participants to come into contact with practical examples of the theory described.
